Chad HurleyYouTube to Lobby Pentagon to Reinstate Soldiers' Access to SiteAuthored by Mark Hefflinger on May 18, 2007 - 10:28am.
San Francisco - The founders of YouTube this week challenged the Pentagon's reasoning when it cited bandwidth constraints as a primary motive for blocking access to its website -- along with other video-sharing sites and social networks like MySpace -- from U.S. soldiers and others using its network, the Associated Press reported.

Updated - More videos added. YouTube CEO and co-founder Chad Hurley and HDNet co-founder Mark Cuban made the trek up to Capitol Hill this week to tell the members of the House subcommittee on Telecommunications and the Internet about how they see the future of video taking shape. Not surprisingly, they were asked about their views on copyright issues in a digital age and user generated content. Here are a few highlights from CSPAN put together by the 463 blog.
The Quiet Brilliance of YouTube’s Chad HurleyAuthored by Scott Goldberg on May 2, 2007 - 4:24pm.
The kick-off panel for OnHollywood last night featured a star-studded lineup: Moderator Carson Daly, YouTube CEO Chad Hurley, Sling Media CEO Blake Krikorian, MP3tunes CEO Michael Robertson, and former MySpace chairman Rich Rosenblatt. Never mind the panel’s topic. A group like this veers in tangents from the start. Central to the draw, no doubt, was Hurley, the young CEO of the worldwide phenomenon YouTube. But Hurley’s not the guy you’d imagine. He sat relaxed and never spoke above a polite tone, appearing like a Buddhist monk relative to the others. If anything, he was the antithesis of Michael Robertson, who seemed most focused on displaying his vast expertise to the audience.
John Dvorak on the Genius of YouTubeAuthored by robert on August 10, 2006 - 7:06am.
"Even Google can't get it right. I'm hoping that the founders of YouTube Chad Hurley and Steve Chen realize that they may be subtle geniuses insofar as ease-of-use is concerned. I want to see more from these two, no matter what happens to YouTube."
