Insights from Googlers into our products, technology, and the Google culture
What have we done for you lately?
June 29, 2006
Posted by Jon Steinback, Product Marketing Manager
As you might imagine, we on the Google Video team use it for pretty much
everything
. It shouldn't be such a surprise, then, to know that the feature requests we get internally mirror those that you send to us. Namely, just like you, Googlers want to pay less and interact more. So this past week, we've been very busy rolling out changes to make this a reality.
First, more things are now free. We're doing a
sponsored video test
so you can watch premium videos without paying. (Perhaps we were inspired by the conversation Bill and Melinda Gates and Warren Buffett had about philanthropy with
Charlie Rose
).
Next, have you been itching to tell us (and the rest of the world) what you think of our videos? Now you can rate, label, and comment on them. We know you're dying to say something about this David Hasselhoff
clip
or the
latest one
about Diet Coke + Mentos.
Last, we made it easier for you to blog some of these entertaining pieces under the new "Share this video" link on the playback page. A few clicks and your current favorite is directly embedded into the most popular blogging platforms like Blogger, TypePad, MySpace and LiveJournal.
Stay tuned for another batch of features - and meanwhile, enjoy these.
