YouTube Viral Broker

YouTube "Viral Broker" connects aspiring viral-video creators, YouTube and prospective advertisers. We see calls with Brookers, Emalina, Smosh, Justin Laipply (Evolution of Dance), and YouTube founder Chad Hurley turning down a prime Coke media buy.

Mind you this video was done in 2006 when nobody was doing sponsored videos. So, as evidenced by the view count, this was mostly an inside joke for me. Now four years later I've published "Beyond Viral," which explains how sponsored videos are quite common now.

So how about a little cred here people? This was me in my Michael Crighton futuristic moment. I'm just saying.
