YouTube could dominate cellphones
According to BloggingStocks, YouTube's greatest potential is not on the computer screen -- but on the cellphone screen.
"Visit mobile.youtube.com on your cellphone's web browser and you can get a taste of what may be coming. Not all YouTube content is available yet, but with these videos being converted on the fly to the format most modern cellphones can play, is YouTube's vast video library about to be opened to over a billion cellphones worldwide?
With YouTube being bundled by Apple on the new iPhone and with a partnership with Korean cellphone giant LG on tap, Google's plans for YouTube may expand way beyond the computer screen.
There are about four times as many cellphones in use in the world as PCs -- and we can all do the math, right?"
