So it could've been they had to change it or they'd get sued or did get sued, lol. ~Karlee Yeah,i saw that,but i thought of it a different way,i thought it might have been youtube,after all they basically were stealing youtube’s name.

I mean, a new layout is cool, but a name like 'Tangle'? That just sounds to me like a horrible, worldly mess, if you don't mind me saying. I think, if you're going to change the name, change it to something uplifting an inspiring - not something negative-sounding like 'Tangle'. Overall, I think this is a big mistake on their part. The reason so many Christians were drawn to the site is because it was blatantly Christian. There are other 'ordinary' video sites, but none of them will ever begin to rival Youtube. And they're ditching their uniqueness to become one of the masses? That just makes me angry.

I don't think it's necessarily a <i>bad</i> change...but then again, it's not as if they would mention it publicly if the name-change had other motivations. I think it probably did, whether purposefully or accidentally. I did see that, Josh.

If a man remains in me and I in him, he will bear much fruit; for apart from me you can do nothing." (John 15:5) This passage reminds us that even though we are different branches, we share one common purpose: to abide in the Lord and to bear much fruit. With a name like tangle, we can obey Christ's command to become intertwined with community and faith while constantly branching out into the world."

Not to be a pessimist, but realistically speaking Tangle will never have the technological edge that Google lends to YouTube. While at one point I may have been drawn to GodTube, with the removal of "God" from the "Tube" the issue really has become "Tangled". The secularization of GodTube/Tangle is slightly reminiscent of the social caving-in of eHarmony. I'll still use Tangle, but YouTube will probably have more sway.
