Your name
Between 2009 and 2012, Apple iPhones and iPod Touches included a feature called “Send to YouTube”, which allowed users to send videos directly to YouTube from the Photos app.
As explained in his blog an engineer named Ben Wallace, which was a real bombshell for the growth of YouTube, thanks to which he saw video uploads. they increased by 180% during the first half of 2009.
In 2012, the curiosity function was no longer available. Apple has removed the YouTube app In August of that year, however, the legacy of that option was particularly curious. And it is because All those videos are uploaded with the standard name: IMG_XXXX. That is, the letters “IMG_” are followed by a number ranging from 0000 to 9999.
All that content that ended up on YouTube is still there. Thousands of videos with those names – you can search for “IMG_0001” on YouTube to prove it – check out the Google video platform. Most of these are bland videos, poorly described and cheap.
In many cases, the visits of these videos are minimal – some do not even have one – but the discovery of Waleys has resulted in the most original thing.
He created him Leo Waltza developer who thought of offering a sophisticated way for those to “enjoy” videos. Walz created IMG_0001a place where it can be done from one to the other with a simple click of the mouse.
The videos, always in the format IMG_XXXX, follow each other randomly. They allow us to see small pieces of moments that people around the world have captured and then uploaded to YouTube, probably with no particular intention of sharing or viewing later.
This is noticeable in these videos, which jump from topic to scene in a completely unexpected way. When he does, he shows us two things. First, the dark and apotheotical diversity of life.
The other as deep, again; still surprising.
