A fascinating and illuminating book. Essential reading for everyone who wants to understand the surprising power and reach of internet video
A fascinating and illuminating book. Essential reading for everyone who wants to understand the surprising power and reach of internet video
Refreshingly, the author offers more than just a history of YouTube; he takes on the role of anthropologist as he riffs on the current state of popular culture and content consumption ... An insightful look into the inner workings of YouTube and its wide-ranging influence
Allocca gleans cogent insights into the human psyche from his analysis of popular clips, vlogs, and communities on YouTube ... An entertaining overview of a popular digital platform
If video is the future of communication and entertainment, this book is a road map to the future. Inside are clues to creating better ads, music, comedy, education, and yes, cat videos
Offering an insightful and nostalgic backstage tour, Kevin Allocca reveals how YouTube tells our collective story
Breezy and packed with stories about fun viral videos
Allocca tells us pretty much everything we might want to know about YouTube, from the ridiculous numbers (the pop song Gangnam Style has been watched more than two billion times) to the effect YouTube has had on politics, policing, advertising, and television … This book certainly makes you think, not just about YouTube, or even the internet, but about the history of culture
Kevin Allocca is Head of Culture and Trends at YouTube, where he has spent more than seven years tracking and explaining trending phenomena. He is one of the world’s leading experts on viral video. Allocca has given conference keynotes around the world on web video culture, including a TED Talk that has been viewed more than two million times. He’s also obsessed over more videos than every teenager and serial workplace procrastinator you’ve ever met. He lives in New York City. @shockallocca
