YouTube makes more money than you think

The old wisdom is YouTube dominates Web video but can't make any money from it. But according to Forbes' wisdom: YouTube still doesn't make much money, but a bit more than people think.

"The mag says YouTube will make $200 million in revenue in 2008 and $350 million in 2009. These are unsourced numbers, but also not denied by YouTube head of content partnerships Jordan Hoffner, who participated in the story."

If true, that about doubles everyone else's revenue estimates for YouTube".
