Metrics

I still remember the early days of Youtube, when a simple video could reach thousands of people and it wasn't showing me smacking my partner's arse.

The video-sharing website has tweaked and changed its algorithms any number of times and you can no longer easily find my affectionate slap on her backside.

A couple of simple videos are still among my most-viewed content, despite the efforts that have gone into more thought-provoking material.

Anyway, I get the impression that Youtube has changed their algorithm recently as my material has mostly been homemade music videos and yet the audience grow ten-fold within a week.

I guess it's possible that my mother wrote the URL on strips of paper and handed them out in the bus interchange again.
