Interesting that Eefoof — a relatively new site that pays creators for content — is getting billed as a “YouTube competitor.” Check out this CNBC story and this Digg.com post, which raises the question as to whether it will be a YouTube killer. Mashable challenges the business model and calls the site ugly. I give…
