Well, as of today it has been incisively one year since all this video craziness commenced.  On April 22, 2007 we printed RSS in Plain English.  We ne’er hazarded these videos would lead us so far - it was exactly a problem that prayed to be worked.  Did you always visit a blog post with the same name from 2004 ?

Since our work is in front of people oftentimes, we both sense a small self conscious in talking about the numbers behind the videos. We don'’t want to seem ostentatious or too self-promotional.  But, at the same time, I think that exposing some of the figures provides context and hopefully examples of the power of Social Media.

So, let’s take a look.

First, please note that the #s of views are rounded and cumulative across hosts. A single video exists in multiple places and those views are added together unitedly.  These numbers comes from our accounts on You Tube , Blip.tv and dotSUB.  We habituate other hosts, but these are our core.

Therefore, this past year has been a blast and something we ne’er asked.  We just now get the videos - you share with friends, you yoke, you regard. We owe you - magnanimous time.  That’s what I love about the societal web - everyone puts up a bit and those bits roll out up to land visibility to content that may have ne’er been got a line differently.  Give thanks you so much for an awing year!
