Damn, Google is taking over the world. The founders of YouTube must be damn happy. 28 years of age and overnight billionaires. Who can ask for more?

What's funny is that YouTube never really made any money and had troubles keeping up with all the users they had. Good for the guys at YouTube. I that site.

Wow... youtube is alright but I agree that I didn't see it having staying power. If google just kept on improving it's video google I'm pretty sure it could've knocked off youtube. 28 year old billionaire.... ugh
