San Bruno, Calif. - Google's (NASD: GOOG) YouTube is now serving "well over a billion views a day," CEO and co-founder Chad Hurley wrote in a blog post. "Three years after the acquisition, our platform and our business continue to grow and evolve," Hurley wrote. "As we've started to see demand for longer, full-length content, we've brought more shows and movies to the site. We're working hard to keep up with the fast pace of technology to bring you everything you would expect from the world's largest video site: better quality; a full spectrum of choices and tools for users, partners and advertisers; and ways to make the YouTube experience your own anywhere, anytime."
