YouTube Sees 400 Percent Jump In Mobile Video Uploads Since New iPhone  
Launch
Give them easier access and they will upload and watch. Google (NSDQ:  
GOOG) said today that since the iPhone 3G S has come out, YouTube  
uploads have risen 400 percent. That’s a mighty jump being attributed  
to one phone model. But Google, which owns the online video site, said  
that in the last six months, uploads from all mobile phones to YouTube  
have surged 1,700 percent.

The company attributes the overall growth to new video-enabled phones  
on the market, as well as improvements it made to make it easier to  
post a video to YouTube from a phone, plus a recently added feature  
that lets users connect their YouTube account to their social  
networks. We’d also add the increase in cheaper flat rate data plans  
to the list.
