« Microsoft Zune HD is Thinner Than iPod Touch
Google Voice Invites Are Heading To Inboxes Everywhere »

Ziggytek ran a post a few days ago stating the ease of sharing pictures and videos with the new iPhone 3GS. Today Google confirmed those reports.

In Google’s YouTube blog, they’ve reported an increase of video uploads by 400% each day of video since the release of the iPhone 3GS.

The iPhone 3GS offers an upload to YouTube feature which allows easy uploads of home made movies.

Google also noted the significant increase was part of a six month trend that resulted in an overall growth of 1700%. Here’s what YouTube’s official blog had to say:

This growth represents three things coming together: new video-enabled phones on the market, improvements to the upload flow when you post a video to YouTube from your phone, and a new feature on YouTube that allows your videos to be quickly and effortlessly shared through your social networks. It takes just a minute to connect your YouTube account to your Facebook, Twitter and Google Reader accounts.

The growth in YouTube videos does not help Google much. Google has admitted in the past they do not know how to make money from YouTube and have looked at different options without a solution. The growth of small videos due to devices such as the iPhone 3GS, will increase the userbase and cost without making a return on it.
