This is not sufficient. I need more details on how it was funny and how it was informative.

I think YouTube is a very useful, interesting but also funny site. It is the easiest way to share videos with many people and it can gives you a lot of information in a short time. In addition to that you can use the site for entertaining. In my opinion YouTube is a great thing!

I liked the article and i agree that YouTube has become a frequently used program but i also think that some people use it for the wrong reasons. Some videos are not necessary at all.

I think youtube is a useful tool, like in the situations of police brutality or crime in the article. The videos taking can be used as evidence for these crimes.

I do believe the internet in general is a quick and easy way to obtain knowledge. Youtube is just another source to gather that information. Youtube also extends the way to receive information, visually.

I think that YouTube can be very useful to us but I think it's used more for entertainment than it is to learn about what's going on in the world.

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.

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.

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.
