The first book for those who want to become active participants on YouTube, written by someone who's an actual -- and current -- success story. This conversational, easy-to-follow book explains how one author went from having never picked up a camera to being a star on YouTube, and how you can too. Alan Lastufka (aka fallofautumndistro) has over 2 million views on YouTube and explains everything readers need to succeed. Both authors have a unique writing style, an established readership, and a proven track record with O'Reilly. YouTube is the most-utilized social networking site in the world after MySpace. Social networking and Internet citizen media is so popular that Time Magazine declared "YOU" the 2006 Person of the Year -- YouTube is one of the main reasons for this. Like the communities they describe, books on booming community sites are beginning to flourish. O'Reilly has many books of this type in development, including several on Facebook.
