You Tube!

In class yesterday, we were all given the name of something that we had to go and search for on YouTube. I had been given "Model Aeroplanes" to look up. Once we had searched for our topic, we had to take note of how many views there had been, how many likes or dislikes for the video, how many comments there were and what where the comments about.

Once we had wrote down our findings on our topics, we then came back into the classroom and discussed what we had each found. From this, we then discussed You Tube, how we would discribe it to people that don't know what it is and what You Tube means to people. After we discussed what YouTube is, we then watched a 55minute long video on how youtube became so big for so many people around the world. From this video, it was found that YouTube became a place where people were able to communicate with others all over the world and how this had mostly started from one man dancing to a song which people had seen and then joined in by adding their own dances onto YouTube.

From this video I discovered how much YouTube means to people all over the world. For me, I would mainly just use it for watching videos and listening to music but this has helped me to see that there are so many people that use YouTube as a way of communicating with people all over the world and even people that they don't even know.
I found this video very interesting to watch and has taught me more about YouTube.
