It’s just a good idea.
That has also it’s downside. When I see video I want to focus on the video. This “fantastic” functionality should be disabled by default, why I have to see this comments if I just want to see the video. They have the option to disable it, going to the menu and guessing out that clicking on the comment cloud turns it off.
I don’t also see it as a revolutionary technology. Anyone with some actionscripting and database skills can acomplish this.

Great idea. Thanks for sharing it..

But, remember, Google is always looking for opportunities to extend their online advertising platform. What will they stop them to include this option in youtube soon?

Or, the main exit of Viddler could be to sell their technology to the highest bidder.

I would like to suggest two additional revenue models. First, I would be ready to pay a few bucks for a Fonera that lets me assign bandwidth inside my house. Sometimes my kids are downloading a movie, and I cannot even read mail. Every time my BW increases I think the problem will be solved, but every time it gets worse.

Second, the click-stream information that you could record (with user’s consent), is worth a lot. I’d be glad to discuss these ideas further. BTW, don’t you want to set up a Fon Labs Uruguay? Great talent here, plus tax breaks and it is a great place.
