YouTube Bubble-Burst Pool
(Will Video for Food blog)
-
A pool on when YouTube's bubble bursts...I don't know what's funnier -- sad funny, not ha-ha funny -- this dead pool, because you know YouTube is just going to implode under the sheer weight of videotaped human foolishness; or this dumb idea called viral video. People who watch these things say they're bored, but it's hard to tell which came first: boring, 2-minute Internet videos, or the boring people who watch them. At least the folks who make these videos are doing something creative with all this great technology. But is this what the Internet has come to? A sprawling wasteland of amateur home movies, full of goofy people dropping Mentos candies into diet soda bottles, or of terabytes of copyrighted music and video used without permission, or payment to the creators? Please make it stop.

The Coming Dramatic Decline of YouTube (BlogMaverick)
Related: A Bold Wager on Lonelygirl15 - A skeptic at Advertising Age deconstructs a rising video virus. Upshot: don't believe the hype; there are some interesting gems online, a few needles in the haystack, but what you'll find is mostly garbage ... just like everywhere else. Nothing innovative here, please move on.
