What's the logic of putting 'YouTube: ' in the title yet using a URL shortener for the link?

That's the title of the page.

Jason probably used the HN bookmarklet

I don't think so, as YouTube URLs use ' - ' rather than ': '.

Either way, I think having YouTube in the HN title is a good idea, however all submissions ought to have the actual URL, not going through a shortener.

JC.is appears to be Calacanis's personal URL shortener.
