I actually read this last week and know many that do recommend it and incorporate it withing their marketing. I am curious to see if any VAs here are doing it as well.

I'm not but it is on my list for sometime this year. Just right now I don't have it as a priority.But I think along with Twitter it is something to be in everyone's marketing plan.
This is part of my internet marketing course that I am taking online now so I plan to use it when I get to the video module. I already bought the flip camcorder and I can't wait to start with it.

I am currently assisting clients with adding video to Youtube for their marketing efforts. I edit the video and then upload it to Youtube. I am also incorporating the video into their blogs. It is working out very nicely for them.

While I have not used Youtube to the extent as described in the article or what I do for my clients, I plan on doing so in the very near future. I do, however, share Youtube videos on one of my podcast blogs and find video (like images) adds a little something extra.

My husband (believe it or not) posted a video on Youtube, that has received over 6,000 views and 56 comments. He, himself, comments back to the people. So, for those still questioning whether Youtube is a social networking site or not..it most certainly is.
