In such a bid, YouTube has also banned all those submissions that show guns and knives in a positive way.</p>
<p>The new rule has been implemented because of an investigative report from The Times’ that noticed some failings in YouTube’s monitoring system.</p>
<p>A spokesperson for Google, who owns the website said about the new ruling: “The particular concern is over those videos that show weapons to threat or bullying the people and this area is really needed to be addressed.<span id="more-246"></span></p>
<p>It’s not happening first time that YouTube changed its submission rules .During the last week, YouTube posted an update to community guidelines on its official blog in which change of policy related to videos that had hate speeches, violence and other content was announced.</p>
<p>These new guidelines are somewhat confusing for some as well as they are asking whether the rules also apply on pro military videos.</p>
<p>According to YouTube, it has to face problems in vetting video before they go on the site.</p>
<p>In a quick search, you would find that there are around 78,000 videos on the site that relate to the word ‘gun’.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Up until now, Google Video’s bigger video size limit has made it the leading video website for larger, higher quality videos. However, <strong>YouTube</strong> just announced a new windows <strong>desktop uploader</strong> that will allow the users to upload a large amount of videos each time. The <strong>file size limit has also been raised a whooping 900 megabytes</strong> (900 MB), which brings it to <strong>1 gigabyte (1GB) per video</strong>. Even though the limit has been raised 10 times the previous amount, the maximum duration of each clip remains at a mere 10 minute &#8211; so it looks like YouTube will not be competing too much with Google on the longer videos.  This response seems to be in conjunction with a competing video site, Vimeo, which recently allowed High-Definition video uploads.</p>
<p align="center"> <a href="http://www.iguides.org/news/wp-content/uploads/2007/11/yt.jpg" title="YouTube"><img src="http://www.iguides.org/news/wp-content/uploads/2007/11/yt.jpg" alt="YouTube" /></a></p>
<p>Even with YouTube’s setbacks on their video length limits, it seems that many people would still rather split their videos just so they can put it on the <strong>world’s largest video website</strong> &#8211; and it is possibly due to the higher exposure they will get. This new limit on video size should bring even more people to YouTube and for the existing members; this will further justify the reasons to stay a loyal user.</p>
<p><span id="more-17"></span> Apple users, you are not left behind. The company also said that a <strong>Mac version</strong> of the new uploader is being developed.</p>
<p>People are hoping that a time limit boost will be introduced as well, and this would put YouTube even closer to becoming a monopoly for online videos. Almost everything else a video sharing website needs is already present, and it is just a matter of time before the giant will completely dominate the market. <strong>Google’s acquisition of YouTube only means that they won’t have to worry about having Google Video suffer from these actions.</strong></p>
