YouTube--Our Culture in a Nutshell?

As someone who has a functional YouTube channel, I can say that I've had my fair share of the YouTube "blessing and curse". Not only that, but I find YouTube to be a very influential part of our society--and its power over our media is simply growing by the very day.

Entertainment, gaming, politics, and news coverage are four of the main things that people use to promote and express their ideas. To the "older folk", YouTube may be seen as evil--as a means of wasting our precious time. But is it really that bad?

No! YouTube is a place to make friends, get inspiration, and see what the world has to offer. Yeah, we use it to view cat videos and learn how to speak with giraffes, but really... this is a doorway to a future that could potentially lead to an open-minded, and (somewhat) educated world.
