You guys sound like a smart crowd. Please shine some light onto why YouTube is doing so well compared to MySpace. I know so much about YouTube markets and so little about MySpace can`t figure out the exact reason, because I don`t quite feel that content alone would generate this sort of traffic rate(could be wrong). MySpace isn`t as popular outside US like YouTube? People just like the brand, or popular around the world(SNS mainly) exclusively as a video playlist construct/embed tool or what!?

Spent like 8 years trying to launch something like YouTube, for the past week I`ve been on MySpace and having the time of my life(don`t laugh..).
Is it just the times? Why

If YouTube can segregate the junk from the quality, it will be a monster killer app. But with size comes dilution of value, as seen in MySpace and the blogosphere in general.

It still comes down to high value, relevant content.

As for the schmuck corporations who sue YouTube, that’s marketing suicide. If teens are lip synching to your RIAA songs, or uploading music videos off MTV, that’s GOOD, not bad. That’s called free word of mouth advertising, free promotions, teens doing what Sony, Warner, etc. should be doing: uploading free videos of artists, to generate buzz.

Clash of cultures. We shall win. Ha ha ha.

Our data shows that Google.com hit 20 million unique visitors in 09/2001.

According to Google Inc’s wikipedia entry, the domain google.com was registered on September 14, 1997, and the company was incorporated as Google Inc. on September 7, 1998.

Therefore, it took Google a good 3+ years to hit the 20 million milestone.

Other members of the 20 million club:

Ebay.com, joined 07/2001
Amazon.com, joined 12/2001

YouTube On Pace To Outgrow MySpace

Rate of growth is the same

If you move the YouTube graph back intime and overlay it on top of the MySpace graph then the rate of grwoth is near identical. So the difference is the reduction in initial interia to get going. So if the next YouTube comes along, will it also get teh same take up?
