I’ve seen quite a few conversations on blogs and social media, about how the poster just doesn’t “get” YouTube. Why it’s popular, why so many people are watching it or producing content for it. We attempt to answer the question “What makes YouTube a valuable resource” in this episode. We go over various types of videos that we’ve seen and watched ourselves, along with sharing some of our favorite channels. You can find some of those channels listed below if you’d like to check them out. Hopefully this will help some of you dip your toes into the service. Let us know if it did help! Otherwise, enjoy the show.
