Google Video Creeps Forward
January 7, 2009
Telecompaper.com reported on January 7, 2008, here that “T-Mobile Launches YouTube Channel for G1.” Google has a Google Channel on YouTube.com. How many more channels will be available for special niches? The GOOG, unlike the traditional TV crowd, generates metatags for its videos. Creating a channel is a software process, not one requiring humans sitting in dark control rooms twirling dials. Michael Hirschorn’s “End Times” here notwithstanding, the GOOG’s potential energy in another bastion of traditional energy will increase in force. Like an earthquake, a jump from a 2.0 to a 3.0 is not a linear force. Clever writing won’t do much to change the face of traditional media when Googzilla does its waltz to the Strauss tune Schatz-Walzer. There’s gold in those honking hot videos pumped to any device that can tap into the Google umbilical.
