I can definitely see why Youtube has become so successful, it is so addicting! It's a great site to visit when you're bored or looking for some easy, accessible entertainment. So many people access the viedoes on Youtube and upload videos of their own. The video we watched in class the other day already had so many views.
I think that it's great we did the video assignment with iMovie. Everyone had great videos and I think anyone from our class could win the contest for hunger bytes.
The only concern I have with Youtube is that it's so easy to upload vidoes that anyone can do it. And I mean anyone. While I was searching for a music video, the content list included young girls dancing around. They should be careful because predators could see their videos. I think there should be stricter rules for uploading videos for protection purposes.

I agree completely about how addicting youtube can be. I also think it is important that people be careful of the videos they choose to upload. I found a blog that actually talks about and lists countries that have banned youtube. Check it out..

Youtube is great. You can find anything on it and add anything you want. I I was really excited when we got to do the videos. I thought it was going to be really hard, but it turned out to be semi-easy. We also got the experience of making a video and know how to do it for future purposes.
Also, I totally agree with you. The Internet can be dangerous. The younger generations are very involved in social media, and they definitely need to be careful.
I'm the one in my group of friends who is a YouTube freak! I'm constantly on it to find entertaining vidoes. Music, comedy shows, interviews, news, you name it I'll find it. I can't believe how I rely on it too. Anytime I need something for school, I head for YouTube! It's so great that people can create whatever they want and be noticed for it!
