Lonelygirl15 woos Madison Avenue

I ask when we will see an appearance by Donald Trump?

Wow. Want more evidence that things are truly different vis-à-vis video distribution. Try this: Greg Goodfried, one of the creators of Lonelygirl15, shopping the episodic show around Madison Avenue. Now corporations can purchase product placement in the popular video blog.

And you can thank YouTube for this twist. Since that video distribution channel is responsible for most of the views for Lonelygirl15 and does not share ad revenue with the content creators, product placement appears to be a nature next step.

I'm told that in a recent video, actress jessica Rose spoke about global poverty to promote The United Nations' Stand Up Against Poverty Campaign, rather than gabbing about boy and family troubles. This was arranged by Young & Rubicam.
