Create: YouTube and Blogging


YouTube has greatly contributed to the digital revolution. Anyone can make a video and upload it onto the internet from virtually anywhere, any place, and at any time. It is possible to upload your video from your computer, from your tablet, and even a smartphone and can be accessed via computer, phone, laptop, tablet, iPods, Blue-Ray players, and even the T.V. now, making the content you publish extremely accessible.
 
There are several people who have become well known simply because they uploaded their videos to YouTube. Justin Bieber is someone known world-wide, and his fame started with his YouTube Videos which were discovered by Scooter Braun who recruited Justin Bieber to his record label which was owned by him (Scooter Braun) and Usher.

Blogging is another way that we can share our ideas and creations with the world. Blogging is essentially free, and allows us to quickly spread our ideas to everyone that has access to the world wide web. Blogging has taken many different applications that have greatly attributed to our learning. There are fix-it-yourself blogs, cooking/recipe blogs, art blogs, educational blogs, and journal blogs just to name a few of the many applications of blogging. As more and more people create and share their knowledge, we grow as a people and become more knowledgeable as we read and apply other people’s ideas.

What other ways can we use Blogs and YouTube to better our lives?
