“Sometimes in our industry, our professionalism, we get [put into] silos…it should be all of our goals to break out of those silos. The more you work, the more people want to put you in a silo so they can define who you are by their terms. Our job is to never let anyone define who we are…”

Callum – if I’m not mistaken you seem to occasionally pine at not being able to watch stuff on mobile – yet this is freakin YouTube, broseph. Can you help us out by sharing mobile device doesn’t play that? thanks!
Hey Chase.
First time I’ve said it bud 🙂
It’s a Win7 phone. It plays Youtube vids, but not always.
Haven’t yet figured why it doesn’t play them all the time, but I suspect it’s when they’re embedded into a webpage in a certain way.
If I have a link then I can watch it directly from the YT pages
Hope that helps

Wee update.
I recently updated my phone OS to 7.1 (mango) and the embedded videos now play 🙂
