  • It was a medium in its own right.

      Again, demonstrating how convenient Youtube it. As Americans, we want instant gratification.

Wired 14.12: YouTube vs. Boob Tube - 0 views

  • And prosper, despite everything, for one overriding reason: 100 million streams a day.
    • Danielle Rabello
       
      Youtube isn't going anywhere, it really has only JUST begun. It will advnce just as technology keeps advancing and could someday replace television altogether. Or maybe something better than Youtube could come along?
  • "What it has going for it is its sheer size. In a fragmented world, there is a need for community and a need for massness."
  • "There's still a desire to have a shared cultural context. We hunger for things we can discuss."
    • Danielle Rabello
       
      Which is why Youtube is so convenient; we DO long to discuss things and engage. Youtube is just another way to do that and it makes discussion it easier.

  • Emails flooded in – Amanda now responds to roughly 500 a day. The show has a reliable viewership of 300,000 per video, and the team posts two, sometimes more, each week.

      It didn't seem to matter whether she was real or not in the end. People wrote to her and contacted her regardless, and now she i watched more than ever. People become angered at being tricked, but fascinated all at once.

  • Flinders himself is startlingly uninterested in traditional TV. He grew up without it and rarely watches it now.
    • Danielle Rabello
       
      I find it very interesting that he grew up without television and has sort of moved on to television on the internet. It depicts how technology has changed over time, and sort of hints that television on the internet could ultimately take over. In a way, it already has for Flinders.

  • "sweet tired cat"
    • Danielle Rabello
       
      So adorable... even comical (I was dying laughing) But also proves how far youtube has come to where we can post the most ridiculous videos online.
    • Danielle Rabello
       
      Just as any writer submits work to be published, Youtube can be seen as the 21 century's publishing through video. It is about making yourseld known and sharing your creativity with others. However, not all videos deserve to be credited as creative and meaningful.
  • "People say, 'I post, therefore I am.'"
    • Danielle Rabello
       
      This sort of evokes the idea of the machine and the person and how they are one in some ways. The idea that we teach the machine. I also find the idea that you must post to exist in the world. Do we really need to post all our ideas on the internet in order to have an identity?
