Here’s an early version of YouTube…
Even better… an early shot of Google. Ah, memories.
How to get famous via online video and make money
YouTube’s Gay Godfather (zipster08) explains YouTube circa 2005-2011… why independent vloggers are creating fewer videos and YouTube was more of a “corporation” than “community.” The “small pond” evolves to a “vast market,” meaning more competition for new creators and the oldies… You may remember Zipster from the “YouTube Retirement Home.” But unlike his bi-polar chess-companion,…
Chris Brogan uses this Bigelow Tea example (see video below) of how to “put a face to a brand.” He’s right.. In just a few seconds, you’ll think differently of Bigelow, and it might change your behavior when you confront dozens of choices of tea (many with more exotic packaging and higher price points).

I got nothing to say, but hi and [click] my blog unless you hate America
