I’m fascinated with the YouTube Guys, and so is everyone else.
How cute is the third guy? He was one of the co-founders of the company, made a fortune by the deal, but really just wants to continue along with his graduate studies. “On Wednesday, during a walk across campus and a visit to his dorm room and the computer sciences building where he takes classes, Mr. Karim described himself as a nerd who gets excited about learning. “
The video where they announced their merger with Google is so young and giddy that I’m just happy for them. The Times compares their merger announcement with big money mergers. “A user calling himself Skandmn seemed to sum up the YouTube community’s view on the deal, critiquing the video in the comments section: “Apparently when you become a billionaire, or close to anyway, you become a perpetually smirking idiot. God I hope that happens to me some day.”
I heart giddy geeks.
