YouTube
My YouTube channel is a bit barren. I don’t have uploaded videos yet, that is because I’m not a big enthusiast on posting media on the Net (as you may have noticed from my Flickr account). It’s a bit of a hassle for me, which I hope will change in the near future along with my more active involvement in the social media. As for the moment, I use YouTube for aggregating interesting video clips I found in the site (or in another word, an alternative bookmark).
YouTube is platform neutral since you can upload and watch video clips whether you are using Windows or Macs, and even mobile hardwares. Among the options for amateur video uploader sites, YouTube is probably the #1 choice due to its network effect. Since Google acquired it in 2006, its network effect got multiplied thanks to Google’s own massive users.
I found quite a few independent as well as world movies in YouTube, albeit being divided into several pieces due to its own limitation. It might not be long before big studios start using YouTube as a distribution channel. When it happened, it’ll pose serious threat for Netflix and iTunes.
I have put my YouTube channel link on the Social Media widgetized footer area.
