Hi, my name is
Hodges. And today I will be presenting to you
a small discussion about one important app that I think all of us use
and for sure, I know that I use it because it's one of my favorite apps
youtube.
Now, before we dive into this conversation, I do would apologize about my voice.
I do have bad allergies right now so
I could barely breathe out of my nostrils. So bear with me.
But
before we go into
the discussion,
I do wanna mention that youtube is one of my favorite apps to use youtube.
Has everything. In my opinion, youtube has videos.
Uh It has movies,
has
documentaries, it has
little skits, uh vlogs,
it has a lot of content where you're just able to expand
and just dip your toe in different little pools and pods.
So
moving forward, I do want to get into the history.
So youtube is known
as a global online video app.
It's a social media platform
where the headquarters is located at Sad Bruto California
and it was leaded.
Well, I apologize. It was launched in
February 14th,
2005
by Steve Chen
and Chad Hurley
and Jared Kari.
Uh it was owned by Google and the second most visit
website after Google.
So
that's,
that's a bit
extreme in my opinion, just because I personally feel
as if youtube is the number one app that started
all the platforms
from the beginning.
I personally
believe that
there would be a tiktok or a video recording app
if it wasn't for youtube
moving forward.
I do want to dive into
the logo.
The youtube logo is really basic simple.
Uh It's just a TV, with the play icon,
so
not really much.
And
I do believe that
it's probably the most simple
adorable logo you're ever gonna see on a
app because it's just a TV.
So let's talk about how you should utilize the app, youtube,
youtube is a platform where you're supposed to expand bit creativity.
You're supposed to dive into information that
you would have never thought of just because
you've never learned about it or you've never heard of it.
And it's important to
actually dive into youtube
and
look for videos and content that's gonna
really give you the most useful information
that you could gather up for something that you're trying to figure out.
For example, youtube provides
a lot
of educational videos
which I personally
uh I'm very grateful about that because
me as a student,
I appreciate
short clips and
videos and Anno
skits of just
of
a lesson that I'm confused about and I don't understand.
But once I watched the video,
I'm able to understand more and start to make more sense.
So I do believe
that you should utilize youtube
on a more educational
a way because
that's how I like to use youtube.
But you can also utilize youtube by interacting with people from across the world.
For example,
you can go on youtube and watch as many vlogs as you want
and interact with them
because they go through their comment section
and they interact with their audience.
And that's very important
because
at this point
in our generation, everyone is behind a screen.
And it's really important to feel like you're able to communicate with someone,
what you
pro broadcast
a video that you feel very passionate about because other people might feel
the zac save emotions towards the situation.
So
when we go down to the finances,
youtube
have made
billions and billions
of dollars
ever since
they've launched
their app.
And
like I mentioned before,
it is the second most visit website after Google,
which is extremely exciting and big just for an application
that's been around since 2005
because there's many apps
that have gone down.
For example,
Facebook, Facebook is not as popular as it used to be,
but youtube
is still up there just because youtube is
still finding ways to engage with the audience
and they're just
including more opportunities and outlets
to just have people stay in tune
with themselves through this application.
Long story short, they do make a lot of.
So
there are some pros that I wanna go over
with youtube
like I mentioned it before.
Educational wise
personally, there are copyright videos and
there are
uh
there's false, there's false news
and there's, there's people who honestly
don't really care about
putting out relevant real information into the world.
So you shouldn't believe everything you watch on youtube.
But
youtube have
a great amount
of videos that are gonna help you understand
math science
English through grammar
metaphors.
You David.
Uh They also have,
they also have videos where
if you wanted to go see
a part
of a world
like
Greece
and you never, you never actually knew exactly what was inside of Greece.
What they uh what the community is like,
what do they have for people
to experience life out there?
What is it like in Greece if you wanted to go,
just click on youtube,
search it up and there's gonna be bit vlogs and videos of beautiful shots of the
eagles and interaction with people who actually have the
opportunity to visit Greece or who live in Greece.
It took the time
to document
their whole life in Greece.
So I believe those are beautiful pearls as well.
Just because
with this application,
you're able to have another perspective and a different view
of someone else's life just through the street,
excuse me.
But my sight is
so we're gonna move forward to
the opposite of prose.
And with this one,
unfortunately,
there's a lot of cods. So we're, we're gonna try not to dive really deep into it.
But I do want to start by saying that what cod
that I believe that is extremely
unfortunate
would have to be the cobb section
as much as it's important
to be able to engage and interact with your audience and with people
that
have answers to questions that
you don't know.
There are a lot of trolls
and there are a lot of people who legit spend their whole lives in days a time
just to make someone else feel miserable
just because they're a troll,
which is personally
that ice.
It is not called for it
because when someone is pouring their heart out
and showing another side of themselves
through a platform,
it shows a lot of vulnerability. It shows a lot of courage
edges.
It's just not fair when people choose
to say negative comments and threats and just,
just big
on board for the cyber bullying
is what big con
and my opinion
at another car that we're gonna go into because
I don't wanna spend too much time on it.
It would have to be the content
because
unfortunately,
there's a lot of Children
who watch youtube
and I,
a young adult who was recently
a teenager,
I get person to say that
what I used to
utilize used to all the time.
There will always be like a random clip or video where you're just like,
what is that?
And it questions the young vibe where you're just curious
and
you know, you have the choice to either click on it
or just scroll up.
So there are options for younger people
to actually click it, click onto something
that could be traumatizing for the young white.
So
we're done with the cards for now.
So one thing I think is very important
to
keep it your
mindset. Every time you do go on this app, youtube
is to engage. It's very important
personally because
we're all human beings and we should act as if we're not
behind the screen.
We shouldn't treat people or
just
stare at people
and not even say a word or
dislike someone's video and not give them
the right
feedback.
Personally, you should be able to engage with someone and communicate with them
and
just have a normal
conversation
about the content
that is being broadcast
upon your eyes.
And another tip I would like to discuss about
is share
if you see something that you love.
If you see something that you're interested in,
if you see something that you're angry about,
share it
because you're most likely not the only one that feels that way.
And it's very important to
catch other people perspectives and eyes.
Art is something that you feel passionate about as well because I know that
three
is better than one
and for sure
a crowd is better than three
and
the more people you have
that are supportive on to one specific thing,
it makes it very powerful and know and successful.
So I really do encourage to just share as much content
and videos that you personally like or you
feel passionate about or you believe that it's awareness
and then
last but not least,
learn,
learning is the most important thing
I believe in this world.
I recently took a break from school and
I personally wasn't learning much
to, to be honest, I wasn't learning much
and it did feel a bit a
bit off. Just not even having the whole,
just the whole, like
said
of not wanting to learn anything or not getting knowledge from something
out of a whole day.
I think it's very important when you learn
something because it just makes your brain expand
and
that's how it is with youtube.
There's so many videos after videos, after videos,
after what topic you would search out
that you wanna learn.
There's way, way too many options.
