Amanda Congdon, presenter of the massively successful vlog Rocketboom, has left the show. Commenters had speculated that Amanda was on vacation, but it now transpires that she's gone for good. In a short video (included below), Amanda claims that she was ditched by Rocketboom co-creator Andrew Baron. She states that Andrew was able to make the decision because he owns 51% of the business, while Amanda owns 49%.

Rocketboom has been the world's most successful video blog, with more than 250,000 daily viewers, a partnership with Tivo and around $40,000 in weekly ad revenue. It's not clear whether the show will continue.
