To see how YouTube has become part of pop culture, it's been just amazing. ”

Launch your product or service before you have funding. See how people respond to it before you have a PowerPoint and business plan - have something people can use, and go from there. ”

Unfortunately, I think YouTube is going down the route of rewarding the select few around content creation, be it with partnerships or with ways of funding original content. ”

Running helped me learn how to deal with failure, and failure is a big part of the Internet business. ”

Google has a great product. They've built a great business. ”

Approach your business partners with concepts that they can get their heads around, and try to respond to their needs. ”

I think you will see a point where the traditional model of advertising on TV or advertising online will go, and advertisers will cover one programme, no matter what platform it's being broadcast on. You'll see the same ads whether you are watching it on your TV, your computer or your phone. ”

YouTube is committed to balancing the needs of the fan community with those of copyright holders. ”

CBS has received a strong and positive response from the YouTube community about the quality of its programming. ”

People want to see something authentic. If it's too polished and highly produced, people might not trust it as much. If it's grainy, if it's coming from a webcam, if it's someone standing there and talking their mind or sharing their thoughts, people trust it much more. ”
