Yet Another “Share Revenue” Video Site

ByNalts

The online video market is getting more crowded. Here’s another revenue-sharing model in the lines of Revver and Eefoof and Motion.tv. It’s called Flixya. I discovered it from some self-promotional comments posted on popular YouTube videos. Looks interesting, but the proof is in the pudding. I’ve asked Marquis to post his earnings to date on…

YouTube Goes Bankrupt

ByNalts

No- YouTube hasn’t gone bankrupt. I make up headlines to ensure RSS readers pop in for a visit. I’m allowed to do that because I’m not a journalist I’m a blogger. I can even do this in the middle of a post… 😉  Furthermore I could make up data and not attribute quotes, but I’ve…

Used TV for Sale

ByNalts

Six months ago I’d be falling asleep on my couch right now watching TV. But here’s a classic example of how I’m “leaning forward” instead of “leaning back.” Unless your grandson is reading this post to you, you’re probably making a similar transition. “Here’s my travel log, and keep in mind that for online video…

“YouRube” Gives Attention Without Compensation

ByNalts

Chad Hurley (co-founder of YouTube) and Michael Robertson (counder of MP3.com)

ByNalts

Here’s a video from ZDNet that features part of a round table about consumer-generated media at the AlwaysOn Stanford Summit in Palo Alto, Calif. At first I’m bored by Chad. Then Michael kicks in, and I almost think we’ll have an intelligent debate. But it seems like the themes are: YouTube is creating a stage…

A direct lift from PaidContent.org on July 24. I really can’t add any insights, but it seems to be important. The best judge of future entrepreneurial success is past entrepreneurial success.

Perky Blonde Hosts YahooTV’s “The 9″

ByNalts

The 9, a daily show available on Yahoo TV, identifies interesting sites or videos. Worth a look. The videos are a bit closer to “Entertainment Tonight” humor than “Jon Stewart,” but it’s still worth a glance. Maria Sansone, the host, is eye candy… but the commentary isn’t as biting as WebJunk‘s host, Patrice O’Neal (he…

Creating The Frankenstein of Online Video Sites

ByNalts

Did you ever play the game in college where you tried to imagine the perfect woman, and you’d combine parts from various people you knew? Kinda like building the Frankenstein of women?
