Interesting stuff…
In the last couple of weeks Barack Obama’s YouTube numbers have absolutely skyrocketed. With over 2,700,000 views of Obama’s channel as of this writing, he has almost 35 times the number of views as Hillary Clinton, who comes in second at over 78,000 (in the last couple of days Obama’s numbers seemed to stopped climbing completely — has YouTube capped the number of views?) and his number of views have risen by almost 2000% in the last week. While we know that Obama is enjoying more support online than any other candidate and expect higher numbers on YouTube, these numbers are all out of proportion. Either Obama has left Hillary Clinton and John Edwards in the dust or YouTube’s new YouChoose channel, which they launched earlier this month and which we think is a terrific innovation, is getting pwned (Translation: beware of those channel stats until further notice).
Those disproportionate numbers are reason to ponder. Read the rest here.
