A Database component known as an AdRotator is used here to make videos that are marked as "Featured" to dynamically rotate or keep changing on a web page. These videos are category relevant, so to say, a video that has content about computer hacking tutorials like mine, will appear at the top of the page or anywhere on the page where the AdRotator is embedded. Google has that too. So, there can't be any other explanation why youtube calls that "Featured". Technically, that's correct.<br />If any of you readers are interested on: <br />How to be a computer hacker :-),<br />Then watch my videos. They are also "Featured".<br />http://youtu.be/TOaOGKKk9u4<br />http://youtu.be/eaDDEe-iK_0<br />http://youtu.be/PY7Ur43nY2M<br />http://youtu.be/-jEHv6JXceI<br />http://youtu.be/t92XXZZdXXo<br />OR VISIT MY FB PAGE<br />http://www.facebook.com/be.a.computer.hacker0KM BAhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07379412411854408872noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18157064.post-40442677127173129572012-02-11T11:03:29.826-08:002012-02-11T11:03:29.826-08:00so how can it happen to me as well? english me ple...so how can it happen to me as well? english me pleaseAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18157064.post-70197045126397154972011-06-18T08:52:22.648-07:002011-06-18T08:52:22.648-07:00One of my video become featured video.

Sometimes, at the beginning of the month, they list some spotlight themes that will be going on later in the month and how to tag your video to be noticed. This month, there were 2 such chances:<br /><br />4/4 - Easter: we're looking for any and all intriguing content related to the holiday (tag: yteaster)<br /><br />4/22 - Earth Day 40th anniversary: we've got a theme for the spotlight already, but will be looking for videos to Tweet (tag: ytearthday) <br /><br /><br />There are also many contests that youtube either sponsors or gets involved with (many of them have to do with community service and activism) and the winner and excellent videos submitted to those also often get spotlighted. <br /><br />Personally, I was featured (back before it was called spotlighted) on the homepage because I entered a contest youtube was involved with and they liked my video and wanted to encourage more submissions. So I would also recommend checking out http://www.youtube.com/community from time to time to see if there any contests that might fit well with your style of video.<br /><br />There are a few other ways to contact youtube like Email or their twitter account, and they say they take suggestions for feature suggestion, but I wouldn't put a lot of faith in that since they probably get a high volume of requests to be featured.Online Business Mentorhttp://masglobal.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18157064.post-5022611997354438892009-12-01T16:17:14.926-08:002009-12-01T16:17:14.926-08:00Whatever they're saying, featured videos are n...Whatever they're saying, featured videos are not working in the way they're described. I'm often seeing complete rubbish videos being "featured", and when I say rubbish I'm talking about the bad kind of youtube poops, the ones with the complete earrape and random effects on the video that never receive a rating over 2 stars.<br /><br />The user pages of said videos are nothing special, the users have nothing going on for them and haven't produced anything of quality. Why is said video video featured? Because it was popular after it's initial upload, as in having 500 views when I stumble upon it?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18157064.post-44467493886770150362009-09-01T12:02:14.494-07:002009-09-01T12:02:14.494-07:00In response to mary's plea, and for anyone els...In response to mary's plea, and for anyone else interested, there is a Safari plugin called ClickToFlash that blocks any Flash video from automatically playing and replaces it with a tastefully rendered gray panel with a "YouTube" button (the button varies by site but serves the same function) which, when hit, will load and play the video. This also prevents Flash ads from disturbing surfing. For Firefox users there is a plugin called Flashblock does it in almost the same way on Firefox, and there are other options there such as NoScript that will also fulfill this function in various ways. IE users, well, you should be used to disappointment by now.Korvas Blackhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12083863103464991146noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18157064.post-82795448440815352902009-08-30T19:24:42.761-07:002009-08-30T19:24:42.761-07:00So if you don't have to be a partner, are like...So if you don't have to be a partner, are like random videos being featured?
