The overlap between people who enjoy the same videos as me and people I trust enough to them tell my real name is almost non-existent.
And I'm not sure I'm the only one thinking that way. If I want to talk about a video, I can, you know, share it (I can even share it on Google+, that way Google loses nothing). If it turns out to be a really cool video, I'll even maybe get to impress my friends that way.

(They're all made up, but you get the idea.) When I Search for things now, I see top results from previous co-workers, who have Shared things. Those results LEAP out at me.
