Find something worth watching
Discovery should not require already knowing the exact title.
Video + discovery
eTube
eTube is a live video discovery service spanning popular, new and trending content across categories from learning to music and sport.
AVAILABLE
Why it exists
Video is information too. It just refuses to sit still.
Some questions are better answered by watching someone do the thing.
eTube is live today with Popular, New and Trending views; categories including Shopping, Music, Movies & TV, Gaming, News, Sports, Learning, Fashion & Beauty and Podcasts; channel browsing; and ways to suggest or upload video.
Our longer view is not simply ‘video, but with another logo.’ It is to make video easier to discover and eventually easier to understand: find the useful moment, connect a video to the question that led there, and give creators better ways to be discovered.
A forty-seven minute video may contain exactly the answer you need at minute 32:14. Computers are quite good at clocks.

What it does
Video is information with a play button.
The sections below separate what exists today from the direction we are building toward.
DISCOVER
Popular, new and trending
Browse what people are watching without losing the ability to wander into a niche that has not become popular yet.
EXPLORE
Categories + channels
Move through music, learning, sport, news, gaming, shopping and other interests.
CREATE
Suggest or upload video
eTube includes participation paths for bringing video into the service, not only consuming it.
DIRECTION
Understand what you watch
Longer term, eIntelligence could help search within video, summarize with appropriate attribution and connect useful moments back to the wider eFind experience.
The experience
Find the moment. Understand the thing. Keep moving.
02
Watch it
The player is the easy part. Reliability, rights, creator economics and discovery are where video platforms become real businesses.
03
Understand it
Video can be indexed by topic, moment, transcript and context as those capabilities mature.
04
Support creators
A healthy video product needs a reason for creators to bring their work—and a fair, understandable relationship when they do.
How it fits
Video should connect to what you are trying to learn or enjoy.
eTube gives eFind a moving-image layer. Search can find it. News can link to it. Ads can support it. eIntelligence can eventually make long-form video easier to navigate and understand.
Different products. One intelligence. One eFind.

Video today
Discovery already exists. Understanding is the next interesting problem.
eTube is live with Popular, New and Trending discovery plus categories including Shopping, Music, Movies & TV, Gaming, News, Sports, Learning, Fashion & Beauty and Podcasts. People can create accounts, browse channels and suggest or upload video.
Video is not one category
A tutorial, a live sports stream, a music video and a product review have different reasons for being watched. Discovery should respect the job the viewer is trying to do instead of treating every click as identical engagement.
Creators need distribution, not only storage
Uploading a video is easy. Finding the people who care is the hard part. The long-term opportunity connects eTube discovery with search, recommendations, advertising and creator economics without making popularity the only signal that matters.
Intelligence can help before and after Play
Search inside video, summaries, chapters, source links and questions about what was watched are natural directions for eIntelligence—provided the system stays clear about what the video actually said.
A note on status
The service is live. The intelligence layer is still growing.
Inside eFind uses AVAILABLE, BUILDING, RESEARCH and VISION deliberately. If something is described as future direction, that is what it is. If a product is live, we link to it so you can judge it yourself.
Ambition ages better when it is honest about the calendar.
