Yahoo Video and Ads

Yahoo Video in it’s beta launch has an impressive roster of music videos. I liked the ads even better- it is quite simple. You see an ad before the video plays- just as you would see it on MTV. Thats quite bearable.

The site is worthy a dekko at http://new.music.yahoo.com/

Also worthy notice is the FB app that allows you to dedicate music videos ( I dedicated u2-Mysterious Ways 15 times this morning)
and best of all pulls in existing information to line up your music videos

Like U2- New Years Day Below screenshot.

Praying for GoldMan Sachs

A video to people who took taxpayer’s money and make money out of air.

The lyrics and music are profound and come close to the truth , strange, given that it was written in 199o.
