I've deleted almost all my blogs and turned the sites into tube aggregators plastered with stupid Plugrush thumbs. My income has tripled.

Agree, IMO Google is now weighting too much in their Algo on bounce rate. Videos obviously will keep websurfers eyeballs on the page more than text. Google is valuing entertainment over knowledge and information. But our culture might be trending in that direction or is there already. Perhaps Google is just a reflection of that? That their Algo tweak gives Youtube more page views seems a little incestuous since it's a revenue source for Google.
