This article shares the story of a woman's success using YouTube to promote her artwork and then selling the art work on Ebay. A host of small businesses are trying the newest twist on Web promotion, sending short films to Google Inc.'s YouTube and other popular video sites, advertising everything from root beer to blenders to bullet-resistant backpacks.
