Van Stahr from YouTube made a video to promote his new petition.
A petition to make me the new CEO of YouTube. I hate to support a hostile takeover of Chad and Steven, but they haven’t invited me into the advertising revenue-sharing program yet.
As the new CEO I will allow creators to control how much advertising appears on their channel, and share revenue with them. I will also move corporate offices to the PA/NJ area, and find a business excuse for that later.
Forrester Research’s Peter Kim posts the following: when will fame alone not be enough for CGM? As more people see opportunities for fame AND fortune – via sites like Revver, fake videos like lonelygirl15, or billboards for Court TV, is there a “tragedy of the CGM commons” in the making? The tragedy of the commons…
I’m really perplexed about why more online video sites aren’t sharing revenue with creators. Revver has been around for 6 months or more, even if it hasn’t officially launched yet. If you had asked me in February, I would have told you there would be several imitations and at least one popular site (YouTube, Yahoo,…
Stephen King (not THAT Stephen King, but the one from the Institute for the Future in Palo Alto) spoke yesterday at my day job. He discussed the difference between legacy television viewing ("leaning back") and online video viewing ("leaning forward"). Obviously our attention span is different for each task- 30 minutes to hours for "leaning…
So I’m still in the hospital. Nothing like sitting with an IV, watching Maury and blogging on a 56K line. Anyway, “Nicole the Nurse” just saw me watching Maury and observed my anxiety about my IV line leaking blood. She asked if I watch WebJunk. She said she just saw a segment from Maury that…
Renetto. Paul Robinette. Remember him? He makes about $55 a day from YouTube, and I once stalked him and shaved my head to assume his persona. He’s one of the guys behind one of the most interesting video website stats and mobile applications you’re bound to love and forget. It’s called MyU2B. See– I had…
Google proposed to YouTube. It reminds me of The Crying Game, only we haven’t gotten to that part in the movie when the camera tilts down to reveal the “secret plot.” Perhaps the most fascinating thing ahead will be to watch what happens to Google Video as the merger works its ways through the legal stages. Hey-…

I signed.
Give a full detailed list of the changes you will be making and how you’ll go about doing so and I’ll sign 😉
(Or just wait till I get home)
I signed. It will be interesting to see how many signatures you get. I think I was only #5. Maybe you should make a video of your campaign and ask people to sign the petition from there.
Hope you have a good weekend! I’m headed to Illinois this weekend for a dog show. If you ever get the chance, I’ll take you to a show and you can show some of my dogs for me. What kind of dogs you ask? Weiner dogs. I think you would be great at showing some weiner dogs. I would be willing to give you my shirt that says,”I know it’s big, but please don’t stare at my weiner!”
Nalts send them your resume!
I signed. The wifeofnalts question was pretty funny.
I really think you need to do a campaign video on this. The comments will be funnier than the ones on YT.
#3 Amanda O — LMFAO!!
The only thing I am concerned about, is the run for President.
Red State Update is probably a better choice.
I am a sheep.
I thought Nalts was considering leaving Youtube.com for Flix55.com (once it launches this summer). Interesting how you are keeping your options open. Nice try for CEO though 🙂
this is a little off topic, but is youtube cracking up again? All of the sudden I am subscribed to a whole bunch of people I’ve never been subscribed to, but somehow they seem related to Nalts, Nutcheese and 777. This isn’t the first time something like this has happen. A few weeks ago I logged into my account at youtube and found I was looking at someone else’s profile, mail and subscriber’s list.
Anyone else have similar problems?
I’m guessing youtube has some huge security issues and bugs.
I voted. Where’s my $5?
im a goat!
Ok..petition signed. Do all of us who signed the petition get jobs at YouTube once you are CEO?
I watch videos at youtube every time ,i need how can i pick up my profit?
