I’m always on the hunt for the new killer app – an application that will become (or is) as ubiquitous as email. Well it looks as if that might be video…

According to a recent survey by Pew Internet & American Life, 57% of internet users have watched videos online and most of them share what they find with others, 19% do so on a typical day. Access to broadband and a push by content providers are credited with increasing the number of online video viewers as well as number of viewers who share video with others. Three-quarters of broadband users (74%) who enjoy high-speed connections at both home and work watch or download video online.

I must admit, I probably watch 3-5 videos a week. My kids probably watch 3-5 a day – I know they would if I let them.
