YouTube Is Giving Away $35,000 To Unknown Partners Who Want To Be YouTube Stars

YouTube is giving up to 25 up-and-coming partners, with less than 300,000 subscribers, $35,000 to become the next big YouTube stars.

The initiative, called YouTube NextUp, also includes a four-day "YouTube Creator Camp" and the partners' channel and videos will be promoted on the site.

It makes sense for YouTube to promote its partners as some of them have become millionaires because of their videos. Google's recent acquisition of Next New Networks is also meant to help existing YouTube partners. Next New Networks will act as a management team for partners to make more and better videos.

You can find out more about the YouTube NextUp program here.

Business Insider Is Giving Away Three Of The Boxee Box. Enter Now!

When we featured the Boxee Box on Pipeline a few weeks back, it sold out in record time. If you were one of the many readers who missed the deal, we wanted to give you one more shot (actually three shots) to get your hands on one -- for free!  

If you've ever dreamed about cutting the cord on your cable, this is the product to finally make it happen. Boxee delivers all your online content – TV shows, movies, and music – directly to your HDTV in a way that finally makes sense.

And without a keyboard on your coffee table: Boxee emulates the TV-watching experience all the way down to the remote in your hand. As the guys there like to say, “Using a computer keyboard in the living room is like using a microwave in your car: it might be handy, but it just doesn’t fit.” And the timing couldn't be better, as Netflix just arrived on the Boxee Box.

Business Insider is offering the chance to win one of THREE brand-new Boxee Boxes to our email subscribers. The sweepstakes runs until April 29, 2011 and on May 4th we will announce the lucky winners.  Enter now and good luck!
