In a significant-but-unsurprising departure from its grass-roots origins, YouTube will begin showing advertisements within some of its user-generated video clips, officials announced Tuesday.
The ads would start 15 seconds after a clip begins and run as a semi-transparent overlay on the bottom fifth of the video screen. The ads would run for at least 10 seconds, and users can click through to see more about the product.
