YouTube is reporting that in the last six month uploads from mobile phones have jump 1700%; and since the iPhone 3GS with video came out last Friday uploads have increased by 400% every day.
YouTube reports that the growth is being driven by three overlapping developments:
- new video-enabled phones
- improvements in upload flow when posting from a phone
- a new feature that allows videos to be easily shared on social networks.
It takes just a minute to connect a YouTube account to Facebook, Twitter and Google Reader accounts. Complete a simple, one-time connection on our upload page and followers get a real-time stream of your uploads to YouTube.
The YouTube community is also teaching each other how to use this technology, doing product reviews and comparisons, and making test videos.
