I want to have a baby with video.google.com

by christoph on January 30, 2006, 4:46 pm — Permlink — Media

Now, as I have pointed out before, video.google.com is perfect in every single way and I love it. But it doesn’t end there. You see, Google has announced that when the site goes live (it’s currently in a beta stage), it’s going to feature high-quality video files from music videos to prime time TV programming such as CSI and, um, MacGyver. This, of course, is going to cost money. But have no fear, you don’t need to pay for registering or anything, you just pay for whatever you want to watch. So it’s pay-per-view and TiVo combined. In your web browser. This is also known as Entertainment Heaven on Earth.

And it’s not just big companies that get to publish their stuff. You can do it too. You can upload, say, your own talk show that you recorded in your basement and charge people something like 50 cents for watching it. If your stuff is any good, you’ll make money. Lots of money. See, you can upload any original video material and decide how much it costs for people to view it. This is absolutely genious. I don’t know if there has been a service such as this on the net before, but it makes no difference. Google is like Apple of Microsoft. They can take (steal) an idea from someone else, and actually make it work. Big time.

Plus they have added new features to the site. Like the ability to download the video files to your hard drive and embed a video file into a website. I’d like to demonstrate the latter with an intresting clip of two Japanese pop stars (both well over 20 years of age, as far as I know) drinking alcohol. For the first time from the looks of it. Enjoy:

Mark my words, Google will own all our souls one day. And we won’t even mind, because Google is good to us.
