It’s not just a “lonelygirl15�? making it big on YouTube anymore. Now even big companies are moving to YouTube, the Web’s most popular video sharing website, owned by, no surprises…….Google!

BBC strikes a major deal with Google to launch three branded channels on YouTube, two of which will feature entertainment and one news, mostly trailers and short videos.
