LOL - love it! That was a new one for me, but then I haven’t tried my hand at YouTube before. Great stuff. Will blog it, too. Keep ’em coming! :)

I tried something similar using the ’Reload Every’ plugin for firefox to reload the page every second to see if the views went up. I got around 20k views before I decided refreshing works. I could have gone further to hit the homepage but there’s another one for you to do

ViperChill, didn’t they track a large percentage of views coming from the same IP address? Even if they didn’t, that’ll be pretty easy to catch. So, I would stick to the iframe thingy.

Ah, but you could daisywheel your clicks across a slew of anonymous proxies to circumvent that.

Wait, wouldn’t they have to click play to count as a view? or do they simply count impressions of the video as views? If you made it play in the iframe, wouldn’t your site visitors hear the video?
