Playing with Video Accelerator for YouTube:

A few days ago I started playing with Video Accelerator for YouTube, a new product with unique technology that improves the viewing experience of streaming video - so far it has been adapted to YouTube videos but in light of the demand, I'm told it will be enhanced to additional video streaming services very soon.

According to friends at the company, the product leverages multi connection technology to accelerate the caching of streaming video thus helping overcome picture freezes and those annoying buffering problems.

While the product was not officially released, it is only in beta stage right now, yet its gaining very strong viral growth as it is already doing over 10,000 new daily registrations (with no marketing activity or spending at all.)

This product was made by Speedbit, the makers of Download Accelerator Plus (the popular download manager with over 134 million registered users and more than 50k new users joining everyday).

If you find yourself watching YouTube videos, please give Video Accelerator for YouTube a try and let me know what you think.
