Previously on Pop17, I talked about lifecasting and interviewed Steve Chen about YouTube’s plan to integrate live video on their site. Silicon Alley Insider said that it wouldn’t happen this year, however, it did with YouTube Live. As you can imagine, that was expensive to serve. (See more details at TechCrunch).

Part of the event was broadcasted to YouTube from 30,000 feet in the air on board Virgin America for their wifi beta launch.

I agree with Cory Williams when he says, the best part of YouTube live was getting to hang out with the community.

    I agree! The best part was hanging out!
    Love BUCK

    It was one of the best days of my life. YouTube always has that affect. Twitter, facebook and flickr communities also get me going. :)

    Buck, I love your rainbow socks!

    Sarah, just wanted to drop you a line and thought I’d answer a couple questions you asked in your about me on pop17 – I’ll be brief…

    op17 is a two-to-three minute daily exploration to track, analyze and understand the new cultural phenomenon of online micro-celebrity.

    Q: Who are these new influentials?

    A: They are people no one has heard of and aren’t influencing anyone

    Q: What are their stories?

    A: Not sure but they’re all fictional.

    Q: How have they leveraged their online successes?

    A: About 10 minutes

    These are the kinds of questions we will explore everyday at Pop17.

    - Explored and answered in 2 minutes

    bye now!

  20. sarah December 9th, 2008 at 10:41 pm

    hahahahaha! I disagree with A. They are influential.

  21. C-C December 11th, 2008 at 11:17 am

    How can we leave comments on Tumblr? So if you want the Intel bag, notepads (NOT notebooks!) or pen you’re supposed to post a pic of yourself showing off your Intel in use and … OHHH!! There is your MB Air! Nice! Doesn’t an Internet Diva like you have too much SWAG already? ;)

  22. artcola • refreshing! December 11th, 2008 at 3:08 pm

    Really great stuff happening on YouTube! Now I just need to figure out a great show, so I can get an invite next year!

  23. sarah December 11th, 2008 at 5:02 pm

    @C-C yes I do. Especially from Intel, but I just wanted to participate. :)

    So I have a lot of work to do on my tumblr blog. I’m hoping my roommate, Luke, will help me figure it out. Ha!

  24. Oscar December 11th, 2008 at 6:34 pm
