Three years after the acquisition, our platform and our business continue to grow and evolve," Hurley wrote Friday on YouTube's official blog. "We are still committed to the same principles that informed the site early on, but we know things have changed."

Hurley said short, user-created clips are still "voraciously consumed" on YouTube, but added, "As we've started to see demand for longer, full-length content, we've brought more shows and movies to the site."
