Yesterday I was on Google Video looking for some Simpsons quotes and found something new ...
... a feature whereby Google encourages any producers of video content to upload their material! Apparently, they actually "announced" this development. I thought they were just going to wait and see if anyone discovered it. :)
Interesting tidbits: similar to photo sharing services like Flickr, the plan is to have publishers include metadata with their images so searchers can better find what they're looking for. Also, Google will let you charge for your video. It takes a revenue share for providing the service and connecting you with buyers.
Some believe that this means Google now "competes with TV." Does it?
