It's Friday!!! and tons of things are flying through my head I'd like to ramble a bit on.

Firstly, youtube. When I joined up on youtube, my idea was to use it to hear music and view some music videos.. especially putting on a playlist and chilling out while doing work or whatever. Of course youtube can be used for tons of other things.. like learning to break into houses, pcs, watching football highlights etc. However, my main thing was music.

Now a couple days ago, I saw a post on tech-barbados titled "YouTube Asked to Remove 100,000 Music Video Clips".. something about some company called Viacom and youtube.. I read it a bit but, brushed it off.. until earlier today when I go to my tube to listen my playlist and I keep getting:

"This video is no longer available due to a copyright claim by Viacom International Inc."

!! Even when I go to listen to this bIG tune -> "Rihanna - Unfaithful".! Ah well. I wonder how youtube is taking this though, it can't only be me that goes there for the oldest & latest music! There must be some traffic drop-off..
