It is making the rounds on the webosphere that 
YouTube has implemented two new buttons on the partner interface that pertain to blocking of videos.
ComScore has released their online video numbers for September 2009, and the trend continues. Online video views are again at an all time high.
More than 168 Million U.S. viewers watched online video during that month, accumulating nearly 26 Billion total views. Holy cow.
In a move that is somewhat unexpected, Funny Or Die has announced that they will be launching their own YouTube channel. This comes after years of dismissing the idea that such a move was necessary. In fact, to be honest, Funny Or Die started out as somewhat of a direct competitor to YouTube (emphasis on videos that are funny, obviously).
I received an email about this upcoming webcast and thought I should share it with you all.
Video advertising is one of the fastest growing opportunities online today and one of the most promising online advertising formats. The draw of the TV experience, consumers’ adoption of broadband and the resulting changes in online content, capabilities and consumption are all contributing to this rapid growth.
I’d like to talk about something tangentially related to online video but still near and dear to my heart: movies. I love movies. I love them so much I went to work t a five-screen cinema at 19 and spent an entire decade managing movie theaters. I then transitioned to a life of online marketing—it was smoother than you might think.
Imagine my excitement when earlier today I read the headline, “Assassin’s Creed Films To Be Released On YouTube.”

Nielsen has recently found that online video usage is up, up, up. They even found out exactly how much up really is in this case, a full 25% they state.
Back in June, I wrote about some survey results published by Marketing Sherpa where 73% of video marketers indicated that interactive video functionality has a positive effect on the effectiveness of a video ad message (again, I wonder about the other 27% but…). At ReelSEO, we know that incorporating interactivity within video is one of the best ways to bolster and measure conversion for a business or marketing objective. Interactivity, when done properly, can also lead to an increase in viewer engagement. As evidenced by the survey results, online video marketers want more interactive video functionality.
YouTube is celebrating with a special celebratory logo stating they’ve attained one billion videos a day. That’s a whole lot of ones and zeros if you think about it.
Good news readers…. ReelSEO is excited to announce that we are now a distribution partner for Daisy Whitney’s New Media Minute show.
