Citing comScore, an online research organization, a news report says this morning that 57.4 million unique visitors streamed 1.2 billion videos across Google sites in March. One of these Google sites, something called "YouTube" saw 53.5 million visitors. This is entirely more traffic than I get here.
What is also interesting in the report is videos are being watched by everybody. Five out of seven US Internet users watched video, averaging two streams per day. The average American user spent 145 minutes watching video in March.
These numbers seem to me to be phenomenal today. A year from now, I suspect they will seem quite small as we move with great speed toward the video web.
