I love that the view count is included in the minimalist UI. I came across one with zero views, and there's something so intimate and exciting about being the first person to watch an ancient home video (even if it's shaky handycam footage of a horse, narrated in Russian).

As an aside, hats off to Google to being able to serve an 11 year old video with no noticeable delay from what must be the coldest of caches.

I'm really anxious Google will also kill this aspect of Youtube one day.

Once you live to a certain age, you realize this is true about everything in your life.

I'm increasingly thinking of customer product relations in terms of giving treats to your users.

The moat and stickiness concepts are ok, but "candy store" is more fruitful.

Of course what constitutes candy is different for every product and you need to understand your customers to know what "flavors" they want
