YouTube New Year’s Eve Countdown
YouTube is planning an online countdown to 2007 through a partnership with Warner Music Group that will include highlighting new videos every hour on Dec. 31 from artists across the globe. Chevrolet is the official sponsor of the New Year’s Eve Countdown.
From AdWeek:
During the countdown, video footage from a variety of New Year’s Eve concerts featuring Warner Artists will be posted on the site’s home page, in some cases within minutes of the completion of select live performances that will be recorded on mobile phones. Featured artists will include The Flaming Lips and the Goo Goo Dolls performing in Los Angeles and My Chemical Romance from New York’s Times Square, among others.
YouTube also plans to post special New Year’s-related video messages from several of the site’s well-known contributors on its home page.
The site will also launch an official New Year’s Eve channel that will house various comedy skits and musical performances.
