The biggest news from this weekend revolves around YouTube. They announced that they will be sharing ad revenue with their users - those who create the videos on the site. There is much discussion on whether anyone will make any money doing this, but I beleive that the most popular and widely viewed video’s will acutally make some good profit. This could actually turn into an entirely new industry.

The problems that will arise from this new announcement/feature are endless though, the most prominent one is video spam. Now people are going to try and get their video’s to show up where they shouldn’t just so that they can make some money off of it. It’s definietely going to be a problem, but hopefully YouTube will be able to control it.
