If people are trying to kill time, share videos, connect visually, and entertain people across the world YouTube is the place to click. It offers a social network that allows other users to view people and their interests. It is a video visual and makes it much easier for other to understand someone rather than reading text and taking things out of context. In the social network world it is mostly a text that we read and can misinterpret information. A video is easier to get a point across because it is the raw form of your character.
They allow non members to view, so, joining YouTube is not forcing people to sign up just to watch some videos. This means family members who just want to see a quick view of their YouTube prodigy it is easy as Googling. This user friendly interface has made it one of the most popular sites on the internet. It has started some careers through the internet world. They say it is not what you know but who you know and if you do not know anybody YouTube can change that forever even if it is not in your favor.
This site is very effective in getting a worldwide connection going. People who are illiterate can offer opinions just because eyes and ears are their only requirement to understand a persons video. We have seen people become successful and gain recognition through this site through fake characters (LonelyGirl), creativity, and comedy.
Information can be put there against other peoples will just because they did not know they were being filmed or if it was going on the internet. For example, hotel party after a few drinks can lead to someone dancing in their boxers. This can be put on the internet without the approval of the intoxicated. Ultimately, irresponsibility in the real world has its consequences and they are prolonged in the internet world. We can blame YouTube for the embarrassment but it would not be there if people were more careful. Yes, we should respect people and their privacy but it should be the file uploader who has more responsibility over the actions rather than YouTube.
