This week The Official YouTube Blog reported that the world watched more than 700 billion YouTube videos and uploaded more than 13 million hours of video in 2010.

Here are the most-watched YouTube videos of 2010, compiled based on the view counts of videos uploaded during 2010.

PR and marketing have been the focus of my career for the past 30 years. As an ad agency client during the early years, I got to experience a birds-eye view of agencies and the experience wasn't always a good one. When Ideaworks opened in 1995, we were determined to break the mold, and after 15 years, more than 300 awards and hundreds of client referrals, I think we're starting to get there.
