YouTube Eats The Tube
Yi-Tan Weekly Tech Call #94
Monday, July 24, 2006
Game-changing technologies look like toys when they emerge.
Hydraulic shovels looked puny to Bucyrus-Eerie, just as Mentos videos and Backstreet Boys lip-synchs must look like jokes to CBS producers. But where did you go to see Barbaro's Preakness injury? Zidane's colossal headbutt? (Watch it soon, FIFA is trying to stamp it out.) To catch the best of the Daily Show? (See this recent one on net neutrality.) YouTube.
With JC Hertz, Mary Hodder, John Borthwick, Jonathan Coulton, Dave Bujnowski and a few other friends, let's discuss:
- What can you do with 100 million views a day?
- What does YouTube portend for IP rights? Is it smarter to let people riff and mix?
- Why hasn't anyone caught up with YouTube?
- Video Dave shot of some Pipsters in Beijing and put on YouTube
- The most amazing car review you've ever seen, and Jerry's attempt to capture some of the Atom's appeal
- If Microsoft marketed the iPod (aha! only on Google Videos now) and MySpace: The Movie
- Human Space Invaders
- Our own parody, EweTube
