On the Eve...

What big changes will happen to YouTube as it turns its attention towards a more Hulu-like approach? What will become of us? What will happen to the community and the vloggers here on YouTube?

This video, in part, was inspired by Kenrg's great video:

which I promised him a 15 minute response to, so here it is!

You HAVE subscribbed to Ken already, haven't you?

(P.S. I mention that Spricket24, Fred, and Whatthebuck have around 50,000 subscribers. I actually meant that with Spricket24. The last I heard, Fred and Whatthebuck were both close to 1,000,000 subscribers. AMAZING and way to go!)

It's funny to watch these hulufication videos so long after the fact. Not that I don't think there's been changes (I do think so) but it's funny how the drastic changes never came about.

That's actually a very good analysis of what happened with viewership. And I think when it comes to the "old school" vloggers, it's a difference between vlogging for the sake of vlogging and vlogging as a creative outlet.

The bigger it grows, the harder it is to find fresh faces ... agreed.

Thinking about this months later, it really seemed much ado about nothing!

Since a year ago, I stopped watching television, I only watch it for the news, as for entertainment I only watch youtube now...

[anakin1814]

Each year I watch less and less TV. This year I stopped watching 24 and kind of stopped caring about American Idol! I do still watch Lost and The Office though.

Me too, this year I stoped caring for american Idol, and I only watch TV because of Reno 911 too.

I haven't seen that show in years!

I think we all need to keep truckin'! :)

I'm still making as many videos as I used to... The ideas keep on coming and the cameras keep on rolling...

Thanks Darl! It seems like the changes have been put in place and they're barely noticeable! People were getting all worked up over nothing!

Knew I could count on you to put it all into perspective, Gary. All your observations make sense to me.
