Editor's Notes
2005: The birth of Youtube2006: Ronaldinho and touch of gold2007: 5min etc. is born2008: Lonelygirl + other comedy shows spawn2009: Hulu launches2010: Most brands realize they need to create a multitude of content to stay relevant.
A lot of Youtube’s video discovery and consumption also takes place on 3rd party sites (See grey table for examples)Videos viewed at YouTube surged from 6.3 billion in Jan '09 to 13.2 billion in Dec '09. To put this in perspective, Google closed its acquisition in Nov '06. In Jan '07 (the first month comScore publicly released online video data), YouTube notched 1.2 billion views. That means that in the 3+ years that Google has owned YouTube, it has grown more than 10x in size. More amazing is that even with all the growth by other sites (particularly Hulu), YouTube has kept up its approximate 40% share of the overall online video market, starting the year at 42.9% and ending at 39.8%.
Looking at why online publishers increasingly are adopting online video can give us an indication of what video brings. Interestingly, most publishers are actually adding video to their site to increase engagement, visitors and to strengthen their brand – commercial interests are secondary.Funnily enough almost 10% answered that it was because their boss told them too!!!!
Advertisers have budgets - but need of audience & relevance (content) Media companies have audience – but need budget and relevance (content)Content creators have content – but need funding and audience
Red Bull Stratos, a mission to the edge of space, seeks to surpass limits that have existed for 50 years.

Several people tried, all failed, and some died.The record has been standing since August 16, 1960 – when Col Joseph Kittinger jumped from 102.000 feet.Felix and aerospace expert Art Thompson shared this vision with Red Bull in –and the Red Bull Stratos mission was born. Since then several partners have been added to the project:Nokia: As the official global mobile sponsor, Nokia has developed the Red Bull Stratos application to monitor this groundbreaking project.
