Press Release Body = The Popularity of YouTube and the Likes By Charly Nguyen The entrance of YouTube has certainly marked a new era of the entertainment industry. Short films, video clips and user-generated content are all important forms of entertainment for young Internet users today. Because of the growing demand for this art of self-expression and 24/7 accessibility, a significant collection has been brewing up. Dorks.com, DudeHelp.com, EatLiver.com, ChumVideo.com, and CrackMuffin.com are a small part of an endless list of sites. Launched in February 2001, FunMansion.com hosts free user-generated videos, photo slideshows, jokes and Flash-based games and movies. Besides the usual category of cool, stupid, and funny videos, the site has a unique description called Link Dump. Under Link Dump, users can place their video to the categories features named Weird, Sexy, Science, Nerdy, Game, Funny, and Cool Links. FunMansion.com has averaged approximately 1.5 million unique visitors per month and more than 3.5 million page views per month during the past two months, the groups noted. In Australia is NiceShorts.com.au attracting the online community of all ages. While still a user-generated video content site, the uniqueness is in the films themselves. NiceShorts is dedicated to showcasing quality short films, animation, and music videos made by aspiring filmmakers and visual artists from all over the world. Their aim is to help future directors, animators, and visual artists get noticed by people in the industry. And like Hollywood with the Oscars and Emmys, NiceShorts presents awards for the best short films of the web in categories like best film, director, screenplay, actor and many more. Well, if the online users are talented enough to produce a short video clip, why not move to the next step and have your own TV channel? Your own TV channel website that is. \"VeriSign is very excited to be working with Demand Media to promote .tv --one of the most recognizable domain names in the world,\" said Mark McLaughlin, executive vice president of VeriSign. The .tv TLD (top level domain name) reflects more than the location of a Web site, it reflects the content of that site -- in this case, a compelling and entertaining rich media destination. Members will be able to upload their favorite video, post video blogs (also known as vlogs), and even podcast their daily lives early next year. Thousands of videos are uploaded to the internet everyday and millions of viewers tune in to watch, but is there a central base to go to? The answer is Blinkx.com, the world\'s largest video search engine. As the innovation of video search technology advance, Blinkx found the smartest way to search new forms of online content such as video. Blinkx uses advanced speech recognition technology to deliver results that are more accurate and reliable than standard metadata-based keyword searches with more than 100 partners and seven million hours of indexed video and audio content, including favorite TV moments, news clips, short documentaries, music videos, vlogs and many more. So should users do a search on funny commercials, Blinkx would generate over three thousand results from sites like iFilm, MySpace, MetaCafe, and YouTube. The Internet will soon become the primary channel for a full fledge array of entertainment, it already plays host to a large number of fan sites, message boards, user-generated spoofs, originally produced exclusive content, and quality short films. Who knows what the future may hold for these artists, maybe an Academy Award bearing one of their names?
