Buzz Watch: Brangelina Twins and The Evolution of Online Video

Authored by Jay Baage on July 13, 2008 - 9:06am.

Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt, the most famous couple in Hollywood, welcomed twins to the world on Saturday evening at a hospital in France. For some gossip magazines (and web sites), it's the biggest story of the year. Brangelina will be selling the first pictures of the twins for at least $11 million dollars, according to reports, which they will donate to charity. As I was searching the web this morning to see video clips of the story, I turned to the big television networks' websites to see what I could find. I was surprised to see how little there was out there and what I could find, for example on BBC News (my nr. 1 source of general news), was not embeddable (although it was made available on BBC's YouTube channel with the embed option turned off).
