Let's call it the YouTube election
  + stars: | 2024-11-09 | by ( Peter Kafka | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +5 min
And I'm very confident — based on my non-scientific poll of my teenage sons, who inhale YouTube — that those numbers are way, way bigger for young people. But what was most interesting about the election was the way the Trump campaign spent the summer embracing YouTube personalities. Edison Research says YouTube — including both regular, free YouTube and YouTube's paid YouTube Music service — is the most popular way for people to listen to (or watch) podcasts. And, unlike platforms like Instagram and TikTok — podcasters can get a meaningful share of the advertising revenue generated by their YouTube audiences. We should think about it as a podcast plus a YouTube election," he says.

The court that imposed the fine might be in for a long wait for Google to pay up, however. “This should be a reason for the Google leadership to pay attention to this and improve the situation.”The amount the court says Google owes is growing, too. The court ordered Google to restore the accounts within nine months, with a fine of 100,000 rubles (around $1,000) levied for each day after that period. Some of those Russian media outlets have also appealed to courts in Turkey, Hungary, Spain and South Africa to enforce court decisions made against Google in Russia. In the section of its third quarter earnings release titled 'Legal Matters,' Alphabet said: “We have ongoing legal matters relating to Russia.

And in this version, the TV guys are still sticking around.

Musi is a music-streaming app that has millions of users, especially among teens. It works by streaming music from YouTube, and unlike Spotify, it doesn't make deals with record labels. Wired reports that Musi is a free music streaming app out of Canada that's especially popular with teenagers. And unlike Apple Music or Spotify, which make their own deals with record labels and pay artists for streams, Musi works quite differently. It essentially streams music from YouTube — and Musi runs its own ads against those streams.

AdvertisementBut given their connected history, Ho thinks Swift may have seen one of her promotional videos for the skort. The bigger pictureWhile Ho is ecstatic about Swift wearing her skort design from the perspective of a business owner and Swiftie, she's also grateful for another reason. Ho also said she's seen new knockoffs popping up now that Swift has been seen wearing the original. But in the meantime, she said, Swift wearing the original feels like the "ultimate karma" against shops that have stolen her work — something Swift herself is deeply familiar with.

TikTok Is Its Own Worst Enemy
  + stars: | 2024-03-14 | by ( Kevin Roose | ) www.nytimes.com   time to read: +1 min
I was really rooting for TikTok. In 2020, when the Trump administration first tried to force TikTok’s Chinese owner, ByteDance, to sell the app or risk having it shut down, I argued that banning TikTok in the United States would do more harm than good. If the Chinese government wanted to snoop on Americans through their smartphones, it wouldn’t have to use TikTok to do it. It could buy troves of information from a data broker, thanks to America’s nonexistent federal data privacy laws. And I’m still worried that banning TikTok would be a huge gift to U.S. tech giants like Meta and Google, which own TikTok’s largest competitors — Facebook, Instagram and YouTube — further entrenching winners in a market that already has too little competition.

CNN —There was something uncanny about Sydney Sweeney’s look at the Vanity Fair Oscars party last night. Last week, Sweeney made her “Saturday Night Live” hosting debut with a string of jokes centered around her sexualized typecasting, rumors of affairs with co-stars and the size of her chest. Were Sweeney’s breasts, as one writer for Canada’s National Post put it, “double-D harbingers of the death of woke”? “(But) with Sweeney, what it really comes down to is this: Sex sells.”Since then, it’s been open season for Sydney Sweeney boob jokes, especially in comments under the actor’s Instagram posts. “Leave Sydney Sweeney’s boobs out of this,” wrote The Cut.

Photo by Heidi GutmanFrankel's path from reality TV to Skinnygirl to actingFor the unfamiliar, Frankel wasn't just in reality TV — she made Housewives history when she founded Skinnygirl Cocktails and then sold it in 2011. The deal was big enough to prompt networks to include so-called "Bethenny Clauses" in reality TV contracts, which require reality stars to give the networks a cut of businesses promoted on air. "I left reality TV and honestly thought the faucet would turn off because that's what happens, and I was fine with that," she said.

Its advantage wasn’t lost on Netflix cofounder and former CEO Reed Hastings, who’s namechecked YouTube as a threat to Netflix. YouTube has become a media giant without Hollywood contentMany in media dismiss or overlook YouTube because it doesn’t look like a Hollywood player. Its TV business, YouTube TV, is a bundle of other people’s channels. And YouTube TV is now the fourth-largest pay-TV service in the country, with more than 8 million subscribers. The real threat is that Netflix and YouTube dominate and everyone else fights over a tiny slice of pie.

Nicki Minaj and Megan Thee Stallion have released diss tracks about each other. The latest celebrity feud is between Megan Thee Stallion and Nicki Minaj, and hip-hop experts are already weighing in on who won — so far. It all started on Friday when Megan dissed Nicki in her new single, "Hiss," prompting Nicki to reply with her own track. Although Megan didn't name anyone while taking a bevy of pointed jabs in the lyrics, many fans believed one line targeted Nicki Minaj and her husband, Kenneth Petty. "I don't think Megan thee Stallion is in the same breath as Nicki Minaj," Budden said.

Starting a YouTube channel can be a heavy lift but can have big marketing benefits. "My clients joke around that if you have a question, I've probably got a YouTube video on it," Liszewski said. Maximize the SEO benefitsOne of the best ways to grow your YouTube channel — and business — is to tap into its SEO potential. While monetization can be a nice perk (and help offset any costs associated with creating YouTube videos), Liszewski said it shouldn't be the primary goal for business owners using YouTube as a marketing channel. Charon swears by batching her YouTube content creation.

As influencers grow their audience they're also thinking of better ways to engage with those followers. Link-in-bio tools like Linktree help creators redirect followers to closed communities. Linktree analyzed data around how influencers are utilizing links to grow their business. Creators don't just want massive followings on Instagram, TikTok, or YouTube — they want to turn those audiences into loyal communities. But how does a creator move followers from one platform and engage them in a separate, more intimate space?

Daniel Romo, 61, and his wife Kristin, 63, got a $40,000 grant from California to build an ADU. Dan: We live in Whittier in Southern California and we just transformed our garage into an accessory dwelling unit. At that time, the only way you could get the grant was you had to go through a state-approved vendor. Thursday, Friday, and Saturday, our middle daughter and son-in-law and grandson moved in — my daughter's second child was due any day. They were determined that they were going to bring their daughter home to the ADU, not to our house.

Reddit cofounder Alexis Ohanian shared his typical work and family routine. Before marriage, he said he was terrible at finding any semblance of balance between work and life. If you're chasing balance, you're implying, like Thanos, [that] you'd be able to create something perfectly balanced. "There are times in your life where you will need to focus on the career, the work," Ohanian says. That's why he's a big advocate for paid family leave; Ohanian wants all American families to have access to it.

Pink Floyd, ‘The Wizard of Oz’ and Me

Muted tk tkLike other band members have done consistently over the years, Waters denied that Pink Floyd intentionally structured its 1973 album to align with the 1939 film. Before my article, “The Dark Side of the Rainbow” was just a word-of-mouth thing on an early internet message board. I mostly listened to alternative rock in those days, but Pink Floyd’s Usenet group had a hold on me. I shared that page on the Usenet group and added it to a Pink Floyd “Web ring” — a system in which people with related pages linked to one another. The article page was logging hundreds, then thousands, and eventually tens of thousands of visitors.
