This year will be remembered as the year the Internet Video Revolution has taken over the Internet and simultaneously left many people wondering what streaming videos are all about.

For the first time in history, advertisers are spending more money for Internet advertising than for Television advertising. With the advent of Google Video and Mac Video websites, the Internet has now provided a way for individuals, businesses and video techies to showcase their videos via the Internet.

159 million Americans own cell phones with video capabilities. 58 thousand Mac Ipods are being sold every day and we are spending twice the amount of time on the Internet than watching TV.

I always tell my audience when I give a lecture about this topic to go into an Apple store and see who is in it! Take a good look around and watch what technology is being used and who is using it. And that technology is streaming video. I am amazed at how many business owners, expo promoters and webmasters are up in the air when it comes to this subject of streaming video and how it is changing the way we do business and how website are now being converted into their own TV sites.

A great indicator of this is to see what companies are using streaming media and how they are using it on their websites. So the next time you log on, take a good look around and learn from these companies if you have not done so.

And just a quick note, a streaming video commercial about your product or service can help increase your sales by as much as 85%.
