You Tube

I think you tube has changed the way a lot of people view the internet. I can many people going on you tube daily to see what's new or to watch people comment on videos. The good thing about you tube is that anyone can create videos and display them for anyone to see. I go on you tube to check out old videos or to get songs that I want. This type of media is potentially dangerous because we can get caught up in this fantasy world of thinking everything we view is real when it's not. The use of homemade cameras are coming back into style because of you tube.

The original show was America's Funniest Home Videos where people could send in their home videos and show the rest of the world but now we show the world in a matter of seconds. Nightline just showed us some of the things being watched by millions of people across the world and how it's effecting the shows we watch like "The Office". Personally I don't like my shows being affected by what's on you tube because when writers of shows use that material it goes to show that they have no fresh or new ideas.
