' This month's linux user's group meeting features a talk by Jawed Karim
(www.jawed.com),a master's student in Stanford's CS
program and co-founder of YouTube.com, a new website for hosting and sharing
personal video clips. It is often referred to as 'the Flickr of Video.'
It is rare that one has the benefit of seeing history in making. At this LUG meeting Jawed discussed the Open Source Stack on which yet un-funded youtube.com was built, initially with cheap servers from various providers on a software based architecture. Over the next few weeks I found myself evangelizing youtube to all my friends whom I talked about technology and startups in general.
There was an interesting discussion I had with friends as how Google was taking up the place of Microsoft on the Web as someone against whom you can't compete on the web i.e. if they launch something you don't move in as a second mover in that space. Google Videos was launched before Youtube.
One could almost predict even then after listening to Jawed that these guys can beat up google videos to pulp.
On being asked whether Youtube will go in for VC funding, Jawed's reply was that, they have been approached by a couple of VCs and we'll decide on it soon.
They seemed to have done everything right from using Open Source stack of implementing High Availability and Load Balancing inside software without relying on hardware and hardware proximity in a single Datacenter or on Content Delivery Networks.
Jawed apparently decided to leave youtube founders to continue to pursue his MS at Stanford.

It is not really important in my not so humble opinion whether youtube is making revenue or not, they have a large and loyal userbase who wouldn't want youtube to disappear so either they'll be able to raise more money to continue to run it or will get acquired.

Normally, the discount of this kind of Fendi handbag is between 10%- 50%, sometimes 80%, but rarely. First, the more defects
of the new Fendi handbag have, the lower price it is. Well, it is logical for price depending on the defect new Fendi has.
Second, the older fashion the handbag is, the lower price it is. Generally, if the style of Fendi handbag is out of fashion
for a long time, and its style is classic and original price is expensive, you are so lucky to own one in big discount!

design does not popular and the dealers want to take them off the shelve, then you can deserve it with a discount.
