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,…
