> the 30 second video I uploaded to YouTube got over 50K views within the first week

I'm astounded everyone doesn't do this. It's free, and far more compelling than the handful of screenshots Apple allows.

I suspect that these 50K views were a direct result of "I also tweeted at Robert Scoble to check it out which he did and retweeted the video to his followers".

I like to think it was my awesome highspeed editing ;)

I'm astounded more people don't use HeySpread or TubeMogul to upload their videos to EVERY video site.

Or better yet, make five slightly different versions of the video and upload it via HeySpread.

The more you can syndicate your content, the better off you'll be.

A great idea, a reasonable pricing and a bit luck. You found the recipe.
