YouTube


 YouTube stand for four things: independence, freedom, music and community, shown by its slogan "broadcast yourself’ which indeed many of us do. YouTube’s fan base has grown rapidly over the past few years, shown by the facts and figures which YouTube has published, displaying over 300 million account on YouTube at the current time, over 3 billion videos watched daily and the total time needed to watch all of the content on YouTube totalling over 600 years.This has totally changed the way in which we receive and distribute information between ourselves.

This website which has been the largest video sharing website since it was founded in 2005 has been made so successful by the features it offers. Everyone who sets up a free account can upload any video they have (within reason). This has allowed people who are experts in their field or just enjoy doing it to begin a trend called vlogging. This is when these few people frequently post videos on their channels which can show anything from music which they have created to their own opinions about current events and news. Vlogging has also become more popular to people using social networking site as you are able to like you content, so if you use Facebook it could be displayed on your wall.
