TV strike seems to push video on web

I have personally been watching more video on the web because I got a beta invite to hulu for one thing, and it is a no-brainer that video that is organized and searchable is going to be more attractive than having to search for one's own (at least for a digital immigrant like myself.) As a blogger/teacher/online publisher, I have found a big push toward live videocasting from the web, as well as just more video apps. I like Miro, as it has been out for some time, but it is evolving to be a better and better app. But enough of the anecdotal stuff, look at the figures on vid viewing for December 2008. 


Other notable findings from December 2007 include:


* 77.6 million viewers watched 3.2 billion videos on YouTube.com (41.6 videos per viewer)


* 40.5 million viewers watched 334 million videos on MySpace.com (8.2 videos per viewer)


* Online viewers watched an average of 3.4 hours (203 minutes) of online video during the month, representing a 34-percent gain since the beginning of 2007


* The average online video duration was 2.8 minutes


* The average online video viewer consumed 72 videos
