Tutorial Five: YouTube

YouTube is video-sharing website on which users can upload, share, and view videos. YouTube was created in February 2005. Anybody can watch videos online through YouTube but if you want to upload them you have to set up a YouTube account. By having a YouTube account you are able to personalize your viewing. You can do this by setting up favorites, queues of videos to watch, playlists and subscribing to channels are some examples of features that enable this.
Videos are censored so that only registered users over 18 years old can view things that would be seen as objectionable.  YouTube is very popular in today's society as you are able to attach videos to external websites. So people on Facebook, MySpace, people who have blogs and website creators have access to a greater range of video resources. These videos are not covered by copyright, which makes them a very useful resource to get quick information or entertainment. 

To demonstrate this feature I have found five different videos about horses and horse riding from YouTube. I chose this topic because it is something that I am really passionate about. Horses are one of my favourite animals and I love to go horse back riding whenever possible. It is a lot of fun and has a great social aspect to it if you are part of a Pony Club or some part of the horsey industry, like racing. It is also great exercise and helps you create a bond between you and your horse.
