    YouTube is still #1 for Canadians... by default. *grumble* *grumble*

    Quite right, apples and oranges. I won't sit through an ad for a youtube clip or a CNN clip but i would for a TV show (that is if HULU was available in Canada:)

    David, if you want to try out Hulu, you can use anonymous proxy
    software to disguise the fact that you are in Canada. I confess that
    I'm not entirely sure of the legality of doing this, but it's pretty
    simple: I've used Hotspot Shield from AnchorFree (which is actually a
    Wi-Fi VPN solution but acts as a proxy as well) and watched shows on
    Hulu without any trouble.

    i need more hours in the day:)
    Scoble's blogging today about trying out Youtube longform, something they can monetize more easily.

    Oh come on, the album's all done -- now you can just kick back and
    relax, right? :-)

    I saw the stuff about YouTube going longer form; will be interesting
    to see whether creative types pick up on it or look to put their
    content elsewhere and try to monetize it somehow themselves.
