- 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

hilarious
the line between TV and Internet TV is about to disappear
Add Sticky Note
- 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
Add Sticky Note
- 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.

- 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.

interactivity, as opposed to the passivity of television
Add Sticky Note
- Basically, American Idol meets a soap for the internet. I feel like there have been shows were users could vote for their endings, I just can't think of the show I am thinking of. This "revolution" if it occurs, will make the line between TV and internet even more hazy.

"You make movies for the big screen, sitcoms for TV, and something else entirely
for the Internet.
Add Sticky Note
- Interesting... if this idea takes off the genre will completely change. Networks try to map out exactly who would be watching their programs, and inthsi case viewers can be anyoen from anywhere.

She'd deleted it when she became Bree, but Google cached a copy

- This is one of the things about internet that scares me... none of it goes away. In this case a deleted MySpace came back to haunt her. I never really understood why they just can't be deleted and be gone. I know this a major problem that a lot of people have with site likes MySpace or Facebook.

Could it be, one fan wondered, that the whole thing was an elaborate ad campaign
for the retailer?

Lonelygirl15 didn't get them sued for deceiving the public
Add Sticky Note
- Herein lies another problem with the internet, the anonymity. Posing as a fake person could get them in trouble in this forum, but what about how the creeps that pretend to be 20 when they are 55? Or Second Life Even? It is very hard to define what is right and what is wrong on the internet.

As Bree, she struck up friendships with people in Sweden, Scotland, Ireland,
Portugal, Australia, Mexico, and all over the US.
Add Sticky Note
- It amazes me how widespread the popularilty of this character became. Since I'm not huge into watching YouTube videos or even reading (or watching) blogs besides PostSecret unless someone insists I must see something, it is hard for me to imagine Lonely Girl having such a devoted and widespread following.
