LAS VEGAS, NV- CES 2008 -- Steve Rosenbaum, CEO of
Magnify.net, a peer-driven online video discovery and broadcast channel for
websites, groups and businesses, is predicting that the big story in 2008
will be the emergence of Nano-Networks.
Rosenbaum is also speaking at Digital Hollywood on January 8th at 10:30
a.m. on the Personalized Media Platforms panel (Session C - DH7), which
will examine Widgets, User Generated Media, Personalized News, Blogs and
PodCasts. More info here: http://tinyurl.com/25heng.
Rosenbaum asserts, "Before, there were two worlds, creators and consumers;
but that paradigm is gone. Now, consumers create content, share media, and
are powering the rapid growth of web properties that facilitate creation
and connection. Personal media will emerge as nano-networks, which are
private and individualized concentric circles of media that are created,
consumed, and engaged among formerly passive users."
He points to the following companies, products and services as leaders in
Nano Networks: YouTube, Facebook, Twitter, iPhone, uStream, Magnify.net,
Threadless, and Google.
While individually the elements are powerful, Rosenbaum believes that
collectively they are changing everything.
He observes, "We are truly standing at a moment in media history like no
other. The creation of, sharing of, and interaction around shared media is
profound and world-changing."
An analysis of the trends that have driven this evolution projects a future
in which the shift in media is driving users toward a very different media
ecosystem.
The statistics and trajectory also tell the story:
-- My Space: 68,285,849 - Monthly Visitors (MV)
-- Wikipedia.org: 41,422,790 - MV
-- YouTube.com: 23,825,526 - MV
-- facebook.com: 22,541,770 - MV
-- photobucket.com: 25,548,801 - MV
-- craigslist.org: 23,982,542 - MV
-- flickr.com: 23,643,614 - MV
-- IMDB.com: 17,703,766 - MV
-- digg.com: 16,964,445 - MV
-- WordPress.com: 6,373,166 - MV
As the media landscape rapidly shifts, Rosenbaum points out, "This is a big
change. And from it, we should expect big things. Peer Production is what
the web was built to power. And in a world of Nano-Networks, we're all
connected."
Unlike typical social networks that host video and connect people,
Magnify.net provides the tools and resources to discover, review, organize
and broadcast themed video -- regardless of where it's hosted. Videos can
be easily collected from other networks including Revver, Blip.tv,
MetaCafe, and YouTube, as well as news affiliates and networks through
ClipSyndicate, or uploaded directly. Users can fully customize their
channels to reflect their personal or corporate brand as well as share ad
pages through the Magnify Ad Network to also monetize traffic.
