Maybe Google will buy YouTube, maybe they won't. We didn't care before, but now we kinda hope it doesn't happen, just to halt this masturbatory race to coin the cute hybrid nickname. And no, we're not going to offer a smarter counter-example. Even though we totally could, if we wanted.

I dub thee "GooTube."
And MarketWatch announces it's a done deal at 4:14 p.m. EST, with the deal to close in the 4th quarter.
I'm desperately praying this doesn't go through, because I'm far too lazy to switch all my videos over to Google when they put YouTube on ice, as they clearly will.
Right-O raincoaster. The G-Unitube will go down.
Yougootube, Gooobe, or Googtube... it's worse than thinking about a naked Mark Foley texting tweens.
Gooble
I gotta agree with the 'coaster...Google's already done the video thing. Only better: Superbowl ads with McGyer, Zeppelin concert bits...
All I got for my money on YouTube was a band of 4 guys on treadmills.
God, I don't believe I admitted that.
(The treadmill bit was pretty good, though....)
