A Very Weird Thing Just Happened on YouTube

4 replies
I tried linking a video I created to a blog I created on Tumblr and it every time I put the link in the description, YouTube broke the link like this ....... at the end and when you click it, it doesn't work. It didn't do this when I did bitly on my affiliate link, so I bitly'd my blog link, but why is this happening? Is my blog link just too long. It's still a subdomain.

    Could it be the resolution and the size of your video link , Youtube accepts videos that are up to 1024 MB ,if it keep broken ,try to compressing the file to a smaller size than go format that will compress the size, such as MPEG1 (.mpg) or Windows Media Video Format (.wmv) I hope this helps you!
    Good luck

    The past few days there have been posts on here stating that Google/Youtube are up to something as many people have been reporting things happening to their established work. Could be a TOS smack-down going on and some will get caught in the crossfire.

    Thank you for your input. It was quite bizarre. I did some online searches and the only thing that came up is that people that like using Facebook don't like using Tumblr and vice versa. And now there's an unspoken mini war of sorts or rather each group boycotts the others web 2.0 sites produced on the rival platform. Again, weird.
