Yeah, but Amanda Congdon is more proud of appearing in a cameo on CSI than being the former face of RocketBoom for a couple of years.

I know you tried to perpetuate the myth that Cox Cable blocked Craig’s List and a week later you were unemployed. Karma’s a bitch.
Craig’s List finally fixed their bug, BTW.

[...] … or more than 2.5 billion in just one month, writes ExperienceCurve. That is 60% of all videos watched online - and that’s a pretty large figure, considering most people don’t even know YouTube yet or watch online videos at all, for that matter.

[...] Jeff Jarvis hat es entdeckt, Martin hat es bei Björn gefunden und übersetzt. Und mir bleibt nichts anderes mehr übrig, als es hier ins Blog zu kopieren
„Zeitgleich mit der Ankündigung von Nielsen, dass die Fernseh-Networks die niedrigsten Einschaltquoten in der Geschichte der Quotenerfassung erzielt haben – im Mittel 20 Millionen Zuschauer zur selben Zeit – wurde von YouTube angekündigt, dass es mittlerweile 100 Millionen Videos pro Tag ausliefert.
