YouTube Spotlight: What Is Quantum Levitation?

Science fiction legend Arthur C. Clarke once suggested that "any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic." The phenomenon dubbed "Quantum Levitation" demonstrates a physics principle called the Meissner Effect in which a frozen superconductor can float and move.YouTube has some videos demonstrating how it works and so it did.

What is a view? So what do we mean exactly?

Let's get specific. We consider a view to be an action users want to do. Generally, this means that they initiate the view; for example, they click on something they want to watch or decide not to skip something, and they watch it. A view should be a metric that reflects genuine user interest. In other words, It shouldn't be a gauge of how many people accidentally or unintentionally ended up watching your video.

Update on Frozen Viewcounts.

We've heard from creators over the past few days that some public viewcounts have been frozen. We're sorry for the issue and we're close to fixing it. You should see the results of our fixes within the next couple of days, and until all public viewcount updates have occurred, YouTube Analytics remains the most timely and accurate source of views data. Thank you for your patience with these fixes, and hope your 2012 is off to a great start.
