The AOL Developer Network this morning posted a YouTube video of Alex Bard giving a 3–minute interview that nicely summarizes several viral widget principles.
Bard is a co-founder of Goowy Media, which, among other things, developed the yourminis start page. This past February Goowy was purchased by AOL. Under Bard, yourminis has developed into one of the largest widget platforms in the marketplace today.
In this video, made at the recent web 2.0 conference in San Francisco, Bard summarizes several widget bullet points, including “elegant” monetization and a definition of “viral.”
This is definitely must-see. If you have buffering problems watching it on this site, you can see it here, on YouTube’s site.
