YouTube just turned five.
Online video of five years ago is quite
different from what we see today. But where will we be five years into
the future? 
YouTube's Hunter Walk, writing on the Huffington Post
website, thinks the distinction between online and offline video will
disappear.
In brief, Hunter predicts:
- Online video will die. There will just be 'video.'
- There will be only one channel - the channel of 'you.'
- Put down the remote. Content will find you.
- Browsers - your content will be available anywhere you can log in.
- The creator's rewards will grow.
