Google puts the smack down on online video

September 12th, 2008 by Jim Stroud | No Comments | Filed in Technology

Everyone expects Google to beat its competitors each month, but few expected the kind of attention US viewers are giving to online video. According to the figures, 75 percent of all Americans viewed an online video in July and the average viewer watched 235 minutes of video during the month. More importantly for Google, the average YouTube user watched 54.8 videos in July, while the average MySpace viewer watched just 7.8 during the same period.

(Wow)
