  • thanks for posting this.

  • You're welcome, mike.

  • Sounds amazing, Tom! Of course, I can't completely wrap my head around it. This is one of those things, as was YouTube and the Ipod, etc., that I have to see in action in order to understand it. I look forward to doing just that!

  • It's gonna be interesting to see how it plays out. If it keeps going to the way it looks like it's going we might be able to keep our real friends together as we move from site to site...kinda like bar hoppin' with your buddies!

  • The people who think YouTube has it all... are not looking very far into the future... all of the big issues are about Community and it's the only asset that YouTube has that's wort a dam in the long run... it's a shame they don't know that...

  • I guess it all depends on what you're used to and the expectations that arise from that. Remember when we all had 3 channels? When UHF arrived, we were thrilled...for a while. Thanks.

see all

  • renetto thank you for commenting. you rock.

  • Well, "data portability" doesn't refer to people copping your images, of course, but to your own ability to maintain the relationships you (and the other person) want to maintain across platforms. Stalkers don't care about these things: they simply rip and manipulate, legalities be damned. Thanks.

  • This data portability factor is precisely why I made the decision not to do personal vlogs. I want to keep my stalker in the dark (yeah, right) and not give anyone reign over my image for manipulation or misrepresentation in the future.

  • Should be this year.
