More Profitable than Amazon and eBay

Yes, there are the new wave in Tech Stock... the video sharing website.

Imagine this...

If your household is the only one that own a Television set in this whole wide world, then do you think that Advertisers will pay premium price to the TV broadcaster to have their adverstisements advertised. You do not need me to tell you that the answer is a "No No...". However, if every household in this world own a televison set, then the answer will be quite the opposite. Adertisers will definately paid a lot of money for their advetisement to be advertised on TV.

On the Internet, video sharing community website like Youtube.com allow their video to be published in other website. For example, i can copy the embeded video codes for the video that i select on Youtube.com and place it on my own website. But notice that the Youtube logo is also inscribed on the video running from my site.
Thus if most of the websites in the WWW is populated with Youtube video, do you then think that Youtube can then demand a high premium for advertisement on their video? Definately! Absolutely!

In the future, before you watch one of those Internet video, you may be forced to watch a few minutes of advetisements..... Can you see now where is advertising money is coming for video community sharing website?

TechNewsWorld.com calls video community sharing website the "holy grail of the Internet" and tech giant Nortel says these vidoe community sites attract so much traffic that there's a risk it "could push the Net to the brink" of collapse!


From the view point of investment, venture capitalists think it's the hottest investment in over 8 years and have labeled it Boom 2.0. In fact, an investment of just $11.5 million in a start-up 19 months ago returned 14,247%.

Currently, there's only one pure publicly-traded company in this booming video sharing technology. As you can see, this hot technology sector is still in the infantry state and there are alot of room for growth. Watch out for them!

This are the quote from Coattail Investor:

"In December 2005, a new technology bull market started when someone recorded a Saturday Night Live music video parody called Lazy Sunday and uploaded it to YouTube, an online video website.

Word spread about the video through e-mails and chat rooms... and literally overnight YouTube went from 600,000 daily users to 3 million.

Today?

Well, Internet users watch 700 million videos on YouTube every single week! That's huge.

So huge that Google purchased YouTube for $1.65 billion.

One of the original investors is said to be walking away with $460 million... after giving YouTube $11.5 million in capital.

This has launched a mega bull market in online video... and it's why I'm recommending a $4 online video stock...the only publicly traded online video stock available to investors.

In a minute, I'll tell you more about this company... and its plan to capture a significant share of the market.

But first let me tell you why online video is the wave of the future for the Internet.

Birth of a New Technology Bull Market

Even before the YouTube buyout this past October, the industry buzz was that online video was about to explode into the stratosphere... and lead technology into a new bull market.

I couldn't agree more. Let me explain...

YouTube was founded just 19-months ago by a couple of code writers from Silicon Valley. During that time, the company remained private. So when Google came knocking with $1.65 billion, Wall Street got left out in the cold. There was no way for Wall Street or individual investors like you and me to profit from it.

I mean think about that for a second. In just a year-and-a-half, a company went from just an idea with $0 valuation to one of hottest websites worth $1.65 billion. That's a money-making tipping point, my friend.

How? Because Wall Street missed the boat on YouTube. But it won't miss it the next time around.

As you read this, Wall Street investment bankers are scrambling to find online video providers to invest in and to take public.

Why?

Because online video is the Holy Grail of the Internet.

In fact, as early as 2000, movie rental giant Blockbuster was talking about providing movies for download off the Internet. But it was way too soon. The technology just wasn't there to allow for a quick download. Downloading Saving Private Ryan would take 7-hours. Who wants to wait for that?!?

Today, however, that's all changed. With DSL, cable and high-speed wireless connections, online video is booming. Check this out: 110 million people download 250 million online videos every single day!

As a result, online video advertising is expected to skyrocket. Take a look:
From less than 1 million in 2005 to over 50 million unique viewers per month watching UGV (user-generated video) online today


Overall video ad spending is estimated to grow from $640 million in 2007 to $1.5 billion in 2009


Fastest single growing area within advertising sector


Internet video grew by 50.2% in 2005 to 17.9 billion streams and is forecast to grow by 32% in 2006 to over 23 billion served

This is a revolution. And Wall Street knows it.

I believe the next 2 to 3 years are going to be boom times for technology stocks in general, and online video stocks in particular.

But here's the problem: can you name me a stock that's a pure play on online video?

You can't, because they didn't exist. Until now.

A few weeks ago, the very first online video site stock started trading. I immediately recommended it to my readers. In fact, I bought some myself while it was still trading at $4.

I think it's going to $20.

This assumes, of course, that this $4 online video stock isn't acquired first by some big media company.

We've already seen this with YouTube, which you know was acquired by Google for $1.65 billion.

But did you know that other online video and "social networking" sites are being snapped up at huge premiums?

These sites are hotter than Super Bowl tickets. Take a look:
News Corp. buys MySpace for $580 million in 2005

AtomFilms acquired for $200 million by MTV/Viacom on August 10, 2006

Grouper.com bought out by Sony Pictures for $65 million on August 22, 2006

YouTube acquired by Google for $1.65 billion

Before I go any further, I'd like to talk about the YouTube acquisition, because financially, it's not much different from our $4 online video stock.

You see, YouTube was financed mainly by a venture capital firm called Sequoia Capital. They invested roughly $11.5 million in the company in the past twelve months.

It turned out to be the investment of a lifetime.

That $11.5 million grew YouTube into a $1.65 billion buyout. We're talking about a gain of over 14,000%!......."

One particular video community website to watch out for is friendearth.com. This community building website not only promote video sharing but also blog and website sharing. The whole design of friendearth.com faciliatate community building.

Currently, i am the owner of the master resales right of friendearth.com source code. I could build a community sharing website based on the niches that i am interested in.. for example soccer video sharing community site etc etc...

Just want to catch the spark before it turn into a forest fire.....to tape on this new wave of technology growth driver before it become a commondity. If you are interested in building a video, blog and website community building website like friendearth.com, please email me.
