I met this guy at VidCon and had a very brief conversation with him. He’s been ahead of the curve with pretty much everything he’s ever done on the internet since the beginning, and while he’s a successful guy, he’s never been about using what he knows to become a billionaire. He’s extremely smart and very excited about online video, and I was honored to have him at the conference.

In this talk, he discusses the problems with our economy, how cable companies complain about us letting them sell our content for free, and what a vibrant and exciting community YouTube is. Charlie is his favored example…which is good because Charlie is also my favored example. 

Carve out 25 minutes for this at some point, it’s a wonderful and refreshing look at the world and how to be a part of it. Very inspiring.

Extremely interesting video.
