Kevin,

I enjoyed your two cents indeed (cool widget). I think the monetization aspect of Overlay.TV is simply just that– one aspect of many that can be used by content creators. I believe creating engaging content by common folk (and professionals alike) – just plain fun stuff- has gotten a whole easier with the introduction of this platform. I suspect that many creators will just let the videos be, have fun and get creative. If they make a buck on it all in a manner that is relevant to them and their audiences, cool. If that’s not their bag, cool. Either way, the process (creating and experiencing) is now perhaps more in the hands of the end user than ever before, and that is extremely important in the proliferation of solid content, and enjoyable viewing pleasures.

I’ve had demos with the guys from Overlay and there is no doubt it’s far more powerful than adding pimp hats to random doods. Expect to see it in some of our upcoming contests for some serious product awareness and monetization.

FYI if you find an overlay with a video you would like to customize the Overlay content on, you can do that at any time by clicking the Edit tab in the Overlay player. Your new, distinct, Overlay is ready to customize right in the player. No need to sign up until you are satisfied with your work and are ready to publish.

I would recommend perusing the Overlays on our site already to see what targets, styles, and techniques are the most compelling and suit the goal you are trying to accomplish with your Overlay. This link is a good place to start: http://www.over.../overlay/browse

Cool platform. Such a platform is relevant for sure.

Overlay TV has embraced the social and user generated aspects of online video with in-video clipart and widgets for linking and even chatting as well as monetization. The goal is to make videos interactive which will actively engage users and hopefully make the paying affiliate widgets more relevant and thus user will be more likely to click on them.
