YouTube Killer (Media Portal w/ Revenue Sharing)
MattPF writes "eefoof.com is a user-submitted content site similar to YouTube/Google Video which allows users to submit Videos, Images, Flash and Audio while receiving a share of the site's ad revenue. For example, if someone uploads a really popular video that accounts for a lot of traffic in a given month, the user will receive a good portion of the video ad revenue for the month. Could this be the YouTube killer?"
The shameless self-promotion on Slashdot and Digg (and probably elsewhere) kind of grates, but you have to break a few eggs to make an omelette. You have to swallow your pride a little when you're starting out, so please give them a break on this. Think of it like this: we're getting a chance to get in early while the contribution:pageview ratio is skewed, and we have an opportunity to perhaps make a little money.
But then again, it's not exactly the first advert in history to offer me a 'chance to make real money'. Apparently I could be making $2000/hour just by filling out surveys online!
It is, however, the most Web2.0-compliant site I've ever seen. If it is at all possible to compete with or even oust YouTube, 'eefoof' certainly seems to be the site for the job.
Let's just hope that a naked fat english white man is the kind of thing that sells.
ZOMGWTFPWNtKKTHNXBIBI!!!ONE!111!!!
...every new site/service has to have a retarded name? eefoof, Okapipi, Dirty Rhino, Blue Hippo, come on!
Haha, and that is nothing, have you heard about Yahoo!, Google, MicroSoft (what does these guys sell? micro and soft?)
Ubuntu is an African word meaning 'I can't configure Debian'
fine, it's the youtube murderer.

Is this the MPAA? Is this the RIAA? Is this the DMCA? I thought it was the USA!
Rodeo hats, numbers, and little squishy things. Duh!
MicroSoft (what does these guys sell? micro and soft?)
Toilet paper, of course.
You can't kill YouTube. Everyone knows that the internet won't work without tubes!

Hey, I have an idea for a new Web 2.0 site: killr.us! It's a glorified portal site linking to other Web 2.0 sites who are trying to kill each other. Users get to vote on which site is the most popular and which one is the most likely to kill someone.
.com!
Look at my Web 2.0/Dotcom-compliant features:
Web 2.0
- Rounded corners!
- Completely AJAX-based navigation!
- The navigation uses a cloud of words in varying font sizes! Exclusively! Maybe we'll even use varying colors!!
- The site uses XHTML 1.1, even though no browser can differentiate it from HTML 4.01 due to the IE not understanding application/xhtml+xml!
- CSS feeds all over the place!
- Misspelled domain name! (In fact, I should register dethmatch.com as well)
- Stupid, irrelevant tagline! ("Where the killr is the killer killer.")
- Web 2.0 buttons!
- Digg links on every page!
- Links to MySpace, YouTube, Flickr and delicio.us on every page!
- In fact, the links are loaded into an IFrame using AJAX!!
Dotcom
- Inane business model guarantees VC attention!
- At least one domain name ends in
- This has "stupid" written all over it! It has to be good!
Come on, dump ten million dollars into my venture! Please!
