  I didn't think it was that funny, and I felt really bad for the kid, because he was clearly nervous. Even worse now, because of this YouTube video, thousads of people a week can watch him stammer and stumble his way through this sports cast, and he probably had no say in the video being put up, which is one of the problems with YouTube. Some of the video's are self posted, and others are put up by friends (for example) who thinks its funny to embarass their friend. I've seen it happen.

  This one (and the evolution of dance) I know from hearing my 16 year old brother talk about. It's kind of funny, these videos get almost a cult like following. Nowadays, to keep up with popculture you have to be in the loop with these videos
the line between TV and Internet TV is about to disappear

  Even companies like ABC and CW are cashing in on this, and putting their television shows on the internet for viewers to watch at their own convenience. ABC even has every season of their show LOST in HD.
Soapbox in direct competition with YouTube
- Dchristal on 2008-03-13
  
  I've never heard of Soapbox. Among my group of friends, YouTube is pretty much entrenched in their lives, for now. Which isn't to say if something better comes along they wouldn't immediately switch. I'm just saying that it can't be too much competition if I have never even heard the phrase uttered.
So what about "Evolution of Dance," for instance? To put together this
medley, did Laipply license 30 songs? "Don't know," replies YouTube senior
marketing director Julie Supan. "You'd have to ask Judson." In the next breath,
though, she suggests that the brief music excerpts fall within the bounds of
fair use.

  This point caught my attention. I used to coach competition cheerleading, and for a mix of sound effects, voice overs, sound clips, and songs it would cost over $300 to be mixed by a DJ. As far I am aware, a portion of that had to go to paying for the license to the songs. That's a significant sum of money for 8th graders to jump around to for four months, and yet some things can just be put up without regulation online.

- Until about five minutes ago
- Which they do, millions of times a day, from pages all over the Internet. That's
  the demand side of the equation – monkey see, monkey use – foreshadowing the
  future of media, already in progress.
  - Heather Wenzel on 2008-04-17
    
    From the old saying Monkey see- monkey do to monkey see- monkey use. As unreal as this may seems, this is true and this is one reason why the internet is exploding, as they say the "future of media is already in progess"- we are here and are now changing technology, television and online media.

- - This fall, YouTube struck deals with Warner Music Group, CBS, Universal Music
    Group, and Sony BMG, not only to detect copyrighted material and, if necessary,
    remove it, but also to make much of it available to amateur video makers in
    exchange for a split of ad revenue.
    Heather Wenzel on 2008-04-17
    
    This right here shows how big the YouTube phenomena is becoming. This is a smart move to make sure YouTube can not be sued, but it is also helping out inspiring video makers. This is genius!
  - Ah, yes, the titans of yore. GeoCities. Prodigy. Netscape. But hold on; we're
    speaking of the missing link here, and the defining nature of missing links is
    that they go missing. They are, by definition, transitory. They evolve, change
    the future, and disappear. Is YouTube some interim killer app, languishing on
    Darwin's death row?

    The Surival of the Fittest- And I must say that YouTube seems like it will be here to stay. They may change, but disappearing, well that does not seem like that is going to happen any time soon. Even my dad, who does not know how to turn on a computer, knows about YouTube. That has got to mean something.

    So scary, but so true. I work in a pharmacy where the pharmacist pull 12 hour days. When we talk about going home and watching the new Lost or Grey's, they say "there is no need to rush, I can the whole episode online". We have come so far in technology, it is definately scary to see where we may be heading.
