Video about the early days at YouTube

Great video below from Jawed Karim, one of the co-founders of YouTube, now back at Stanford, on how the site got started.

Subscribe to mine and I'll subscribe to yours

I've worked out how to make a Link Blog- as opposed to my own musings in Rupert's Blog, its an RSS feed of the best links and stories I come across. Subscribe to mine on the right. Then set one up with Google Reader, so I can subscribe to yours. Just think, daily news stories and interesting sites filtered by me- much better than Digg.

Just playing around with embedding videos. I will one day build a nice website for photos, feeds, videos and this blog, that sits at vanmillingen.com

My first real post

My old blog got scrapped as I moved over to this new Blogger. Thoughts for today are that its still too hard to get a professional-looking blog for free, and the integration with domain registration is still terrible. Also I need to work out how to do make a link blog, like on Scobleizer, that my friends can subscribe to. His link blog acts as a great filter on the most interesting stories in tech.
