Barack Obama on YouTube

Barack Obama just released a video over at YouTube titled, Barack Obama: My Plans for 2008.

Senator Obama is announcing the formation of his Presidential Exploratory Committee over there and on a new website BarackObama.com. He's also got a video page hosted by Brightcove. There's also a full text transcript of his announcement. All he needs now is a blog with RSS 2.0 and media enclosures. ;-)

As of 1:49 EST there are 551 views on YouTube. Let's see how long it takes for this video to register 1,000, 10,000, 100,000.

Update:
7:46 PM EST 15,870 Views on YouTube

7:57 AM 1/17 21,616 Views on YouTube

Statistics on his Brightcove Channel haven't been updated yet

It'll be interesting.

I saw this over on CC Chapman's blog.
