I have always been a big fan of video as a communication tool and YouTube is an amazing platform if you use it right.
-it’s human
-it’s you, your voice, your gesture, your feelings, much more than text
-it helps you scale: if you do a talk thousands can watch it even though they’re not here or if they missed it
-live is great, your community can feel the moment without being here, we use ustream at any of our launch events and LeWeb got 250,000 unique people watch the free stream last year, with peaks at nearly 10,000 simultaneous people watching, that is 4 times the size of the physical event
