It is reported that the video-sharing Web site UUSee, PPLIVE have confirmed that layoffs, and there are the layoff rumors of Tudou, Ku6 and Youku.
At present, I think there 4 type of web sites are most likely to close down. They are video sharing, SNS social networking, search for life and online game. Because mainly rely on the support of venture capital, the video sharing sites are most affected by the financial crisis.
Some video sharing sites which does not have sufficient capital reserves will lay off and scale down. Some major sites must take advantage of this opportunity to promote the industry reshuffle.
