I don't know if its the best thing since sliced bread, but youtube, i think, is very useful. Im not sure that some of the videos (such as police brutality cases) should be allowed to be posted, but i do think youtube can be a positive tool if used correctly and not abused.

Youtube is great, It brings people together and knocks the man down a peg (hahaha, take that paris hilton)...also how could you get drunk at a McDonald's and why? there's like a million other places that are much better to get drunk at than McDonald's.

I like YouTube. It is a great way to share information. In my opinion, I wish the school wouldn't block YouTube because some teachers may want to use YouTube for teaching material.

I like the article.. In some aspects. the last part about bagels was funny. But as far as the message, it was good. I think YouTube does have it's positive affects. And I think that's what the article is trying to say.

This article is useful for those who don't know much about you tube. It shows what it is used for besides just posting funny homemade videos. It could actually help somebody out.

I do agree that YouTube is a big advancement and sometimes a useful tool. However, I think it is used more for entertainment purposes rather than research and finding facts.

I like how the article showed the positives of youtube vs the negatives. I also agree that youtube is the next bread thing since slice bread.

I strongly agree with this article. I like YouTube and believe it is very helpful at times. YouYube can be used for lots of different reasons not just for fun.

Youtube is more than just a fad, but is a new way for millions of people to access information for free at one web site. Many people can also become famous by posting their videos on to the website.

I think that this article is very true. You Tube is a great thing and a great resource and everyone should learn how to use it.

I totally agree with this article. YouTube is great and it's always the best thing to catch up on when you need a laugh. It has the most random, stupid, educated, and realistic things. You can find just about anything on it.

I really enjoyed this article. The writer did a great job of breaking down the different facets of you tube from politics to entertainment. The writer was also probably right when he said that you tube is the greatest thing since sliced bread. You tube has changed the culture that I will grow up in compared to the culture that my parents grew up with. I appreciate the comments that the writer made and I enjoyed the article.

I like that the article explored the benefits of YouTube. I agree that YouTube has become a very useful tool in today's society. Whether being used for entertainment or news, I think that we have become dependent on the easy and accessable YouTube. I don't see it going out of style.

I believe that youtube is one of the greatest inventions in that it keeps everyone on the same page with whats going on all over the world...

I've actually never been a fan of youtube, because it usually causes people to do stupid out of the ordinary things for attention.

Youtube is a much easier way to find out news and other things, but its also not the best way. because videos could be fakes.

youtube is a great website used for enertainment but it can also be used for catching crimes and bad cops.

YouTube has many benefits. This article explores how YouTue can affect a persons life in many ways.

I agree that Youtube can be beneficial, but so can atomic bombs. I don't think it is fair to say that Youtube is the next best thing since sliced bread.

i like youtube. i think it is an easy way to look at any type of footage and i think it can help out our country by capturing things such as the cops beating up people

I think that YouTube is a great website for people to catch up on things that is going around the world, but some people are ignorant enough to hurt themselves on purpose just to put on there. It's also good for people such as HS athletes, to show highlight videos for scouts around the world. So there is good and bad for YouTube.

The article was a good read. It was funny and made some good points. Like the author, I believe that Youtube has a great impact on our culture and for internet as a whole. It has changed the way we share information from just sometimes monotonous, boring text to something that we can visualize and listen to.

uh..i read the article.....it was funny/informative.....thats it
Reply to this
This is not sufficient. I need more details on how it was funny and how it was informative.
Reply to this
I definitely agree with the article when saying that it has become a highlight in today's society but i also think that some of the videos that have been posted were not necessary in any way. They were potentially harmful to some other individuals or just had no point at all. I use YouTube just as much as anyone but I don't think that it should necessarily continue on the same path as what it is used for today.

YouTube is a great way of showing people what is going on in the world. I enjoyed this article it shows you how some police officer can take there authority to far. They think that they have the authority to beat up anyone just because they have a badge.

Threw trial and error and a lot of YTP my response to youtube is meh.

This article brought out several valid points about the purpose Youtube plays in our current society. Personally, I have used the website for mostly entertainment purposes, occasionally searching for a political ad, or speech (especially during the recent Presidential campaigning). However, as shown in this article, Youtube has emerged as a very convenient, yet useful, way to present information or to argue a point. It has only benefited the culture we are a part of, and I strongly believe it should be used for purposes other than to search for the latest music video. As for the sliced bread, I did not particularly like the comparison.
