Wow this video really brought me some insight for what youtube really could be. Before this, i thought of youtube as a place for stupid people craving attention doing stupid thigns to get it. And it is, the vast majority of youtube is aimed to things that don't seem relevant to anything. But they are. Mabey not in most people's perspective, but someone took the time to make a video aimed at one particular subject that they felt needed to be addressed. The subject of course may have been something humorous. That person may have just wanted to make people laugh. The subjuct oculd have been attempting to get an idea out, like the "one world" video. (which i am now a big fan of) or The video could have been somewhat of a confessional, where that person just needed to talk to someone, in hopes that that person would be online.
Youtube, and other networking tools, are changing the way we conversate. Language as a whole is changing right in front of our eyes! The question is, is it a bad thing or good? Is Talking to a camera stupid or is it broadening our horions? Who knows. Only time and technology will tell.
