Most people who have visited Youtube have heard of celebrities such as NigaHiga/HigaTV, kevjumba/JumbaFund, and smosh. But looking at their earliest videos, I’m led to wonder how they became so popular, with the exception of NigaHiga where How to be Ninja is funny and entertaining. But kevjumba’s and smosh’s first video(s) seem ehhh… bad. It’s probably because initially it looks like they both just put up random videos but then started putting up funnier/more relevant videos. Ok… now that my little rant is over, here’s something I noticed when I visited Youtube, an interface change in the media player itself. Instead of the old black on white (minus the red speech bubble thing for annotations) it’s black on white (NO WAY, really?!). Well, more like grey on black. I think it’s a nice refresh.
UPDATE right after I posted this (lol): In finding the links for this post, I discovered the interface change apparently doesn’t affect their channels.
What do you think?
