Aaron Biebert wrote this timely and very helpful piece on his blog 8pmWarrior about all the new changes on Youtube.
YouTube announced changes to channels that feature a news feed integrated with Google+, Twitter, and Facebook for videos shared on other platforms.
Here's an intro:
"I’m sharing from experience as a producer of several online shows and video productions that were created to build community and sell a product in a social savvy way".
Video changes the game.
Here’s why YouTube matters:
**YouTube is the #2 search engine in the world (think SEO)It is the largest video-based social network
**Google+ is now integrated even closer with YouTube for additional community building (more on the way)
**YouTube is simple to use and even offers a free video editing feature Video is perfect for the Attention Era
Lots of valuable "how-to" information here.
Aaron says:
"If you have any questions about the new YouTube upgrade, feel free to post the questions below, on the 8pm Warriors Facebook discussion forum, or on twitter @Biebert I'll do my best to answer or point you in the right direction".

Lee Odden CEO at Toprankblog interviewed 10 thought leaders on content marketing and curation. The article was published one year ago but is still really relevant, probably even more. I love the approach of Brian Solis who asks the good questions : "Obviously you (as a company) have something to contribute, something to say, something of value to offer which is mostly likely why you’re in business. I need to hear about that."
Curation offers the opportunity to settle this dialogue between a brand and its users, becoming always more engaging. It's not enough to be here, you have to be here to say. As says Ann Handley, Chief Content Officer at @marketingprofs, "All organizations are now publishers — meaning, the company with the most engaging and interesting content is the one who wins."

@Internet Billboards
Getting ready to launch in the next couple of weeks - it's way more than a blog:-) I will be writing original articles as well as curating. Thank you for your kind words, I appreciate it.

Hi Jan, thank you for sharing this. :-)
I wanted to let you know that your last link, the bit.ly one isn't good. It has an extra square bracket at the end making it unusable. Also: I think it would be very appropriate when curating something that is over a year old to say so explicitly as it is an extra element of immediate evaluation for the reader. Keep it up!
