Re: [videoblogging] Re: Veoh Networks Announces Financing - Get ready to upload your video

That's the question that sank the dot-coms: It's all innovative, exciting, and ahead of the curve, but how to generate revenue from it? I mean, how am I going to convince people to pay me to help them LAUGH, for pity's sake? I could go in a different, more commercial, direction, but that wasn't the original idea. I could transmit a message about good karma and intrinsic value, guilting people into subscribing or donating lest they incur a karmic debt from enjoying without supporting. Still, that doesn't quite feel right. Deep down, I'd like to believe the Marc Andreesen model of "make more by giving it away" still works, and will work for vlogs.
