In truth, it’s the rule of first. And considering that YouTube has already dominated the marketshare for silly online video, I seriously question anyone else having a prayer in this arena.
Now that YouTube has been acquired for $1.65B by the hottest technology company on the planet, inevitably it will give rise to a whole new generation of online video products. To paraphrase the Eminem song Without Me: “Hey, there’s a concept that works! 20 million other YouTubes emerge…”

Hi,
I recently attended the SoCon 07 conference in Atlanta. It was awesome and gave me hope that a new horizon is finally here. I am interested in hooking up with other folks that are interested in web 2.0 and interactive media. I am not a web developer, but I am a creative talent that thinks outside the box. I am interested in pursuing this as a new career direction in Chattanooga (versus Atlanta). Suggestions?
