For those of you that may have missed it, a few weeks back, Conan O’Brien, on his Tonight Show sketch called “In the Year 3000,” predicted that in the future, YouTube, Twitter and Facebook would merge and create “one super time-wasting site called ‘YouTwitFace’.” 1 week later, the folks at Youtube made this prediction a reality with the launch of new functionality that allows users to automatcially “share” new video uploads across FB and Twitter.

Long, long ago, YouTube was 4:3 only. Then the age of widescreen came and so they changed everything to 16:9. This left many videos in a square peg oblong hole situation (as in the video just doesn’t fit the player window properly). So here are a few ways that you can change the aspect ratio on your YouTube videos and NOT have to re-upload.

With the recent release of statistics that show only about 1% of video consumption is online or mobile, can online video really be larger than blogging or the social networks?
According to new information from Trendstream (remember, the guy who said “broadcast mode is dead”) based on research done by Lightspeed Research (apparently based on surveys), online video is the biggest of the three with 72% of US web surfers taking in a video at their favorite video site earlier this year. If that’s the case then it could very well be the most popular of the three.

YouTube has finally released their YouTube XL app. For those unfamiliar with XL, it’s an optimized version of the site aimed at television viewing. I don’t really know how that’s all that different from their original version of the site, just a bit simplified with a new, big and bulky “skin”, hence the “XL,” that is optimized for lower resolution TV sets.
