Hurley's Law: Like Moore's Law, but With Doltish Video Clips

Thirteen hours of video are uploaded every minute to YouTube. And, according to YouTube founder Chad Hurley, that figure will grow exponentially until online video broadcasting becomes as ubiquitous as toilet cats on YouTube.

“Our goal is to allow every person on the planet to participate by making the upload process as simple as placing a phone call,” Hurley wrote in an, ahem, “visionary” post to Google’s blog celebrating the company’s tenth anniversary. “This new video content will be available on any screen–in your your living room, or on your device in your pocket. … In 10 years, we believe that online video broadcasting will be the most ubiquitous and accessible form of communication. The tools for video recording will continue to become smaller and more affordable. Personal media devices will be universal and interconnected. Even more people will have the opportunity to record and share even more video with a small group of friends or everyone around the world.”

And YouTube will have even more video content to fail to monetize!

Well, presumably Google (GOOG) will have figured out a way to turn YouTube into a profitable business by 2018. Hurley best hope so, because YouTube’s rumored $1 million-a-day bandwidth bills are a bit steep, even for Google.

Great reads on the videos and other, but social media is not new, it is just evolving into a more mainstream and accesible avenue of communication. An avenue that small and big business needs to take advantage of. And CNN use of Twitter is only the beginning, but with Twitter you are limited, other sites such as Rejaw.com allows more text/ which means a bit more info can given without so many tweets. and by the way i'm not one of the technologically hip youth as you put it, i'm of the baby boomer over 50 that says, “Older people tweet too, and not just for fun.”
