What is YouTube all about?


According to YouTube.com, YouTube was founded February 2005 to allow users to “discover, watch and share originally-created videos. YouTube provides a forum for people to connect, inform, and inspire others across the globe and acts as a distribution platform for original content creators and advertisers large and small.”
 

According to PC Magazine, PCMAG.com, “YouTube is the largest video sharing site on the Web.  YouTube lets anyone upload short videos for private or public viewing.”  It is free to use and does not require you register to view videos.
