- Would you like to see dance on 150-inch high-definition plasma display? Images from CES show in Las Vegas on Reel Pop blog.
- Online video traffic doubled in 2007 - from Mashable. Add-up these trends in video, mobile and high-def, and it simply has to be an imperative to create great videos - but how to pay for them? More to come...
