I got a call today from Joe Vazquez CBS to see if I could do a short last minute segment for them on the Google-YouTube deal. I like being on TV because my parents still have no idea what it is I do for a living. But TV, they understand. So I accepted. Note the strategic product placement in the video. 
And of course I chose YouTube to host the video.
CBS is fast becoming my favorite tv station. Sue Kwon also interviewed me in May for a segment on Web 2.0.
Also, thanks to Jack Uldrich at Motley Fool for the cool article about TechCrunch.
Nice work with the tv spot.
Did CBS authorize putting up the video clip? and will they make money through that new copyright identification revenue share deal?
I love your awesome TV-capturing technique
At least they gave you credit. It’s funny they said “hits” when on the screen it said “visitors”. Also, 1 million videos does not = 1 million users or even 1 million pageviews. Measuring “hits” went out of style in the 90’s.
Well done you! Can I name drop you in my interview? At least to give the illusion that I’m well connected!
“Measuring “hits” went out of style in the 90’s.”
That’s right – we call them ‘eyeballs’ now
Speaking of youtube, Michael you should do a piece on the racism that is spread throughout the comments and if google/youtube have any plans to do anything about it.
sounds good to me
I love this. Thanks very much for the plug in the video.
