need any help

NBC have no direct relationship to Sport's Illustrated 2006 Supermodel Swimsuit edition. Nor do they have any relationship to Youtube, but I thought if I connected to the two, I could create a post. Presto Automagic ! NBC are behaving as we'd expect. What else did people think they'd do ? Send around chocolates ? I don't think so. Will it change YouTube's growth ? No. Probably just introduce a few more mainstream people who cant spell Web 2.0. BoingBoing : "YouTube is a service through which individual fans can share stuff they're nuts about with others. NBC issuing a C&D to YouTube makes about as much sense as NBC sending attorneys to the homes of every blogger or Livejournaler user who posted a link to a torrent somewhere -- not to mention the fan-made AIM icons and web banners. Viral means the stuff has a life of its own, guys, and that's what made it a hit."
