Advantages: you can upload and watch videos as well as socialize

Disadvantages: not long clips of videos, too many arguements

Youtube is one of the greatest sites used after Google. It is a video streaming site where you can watch videos as well as upload your own.

So what is the site about?

Basically, Youtube is an online video streaming site which allows users to watch online videos as well as uploading their own. Visitors can also watch videos and there is not cost of paying. Youtube is totally free and this is one reason why Youtube is one of the greatest sites!

What if I want to listen to music? Is it possible to find it on Youtube?

Watching and uploading videos is the main purpose of using the site. However, you can use YouTube if you want to listen to music by searching for the title of the song in the search box. Please bear in mind that it is not guaranteed that you will find what you're looking for. I have searched for several TV shows which I crave to watch yet they are not on the site.

The site isn't allowing me to upload. What do i do?

To upload videos, you will need a Youtube account. Just click on signup and fill in the necessary information to sign up to Youtube. Once you become a user, you can start uploading videos. It is possible to watch videos without your account. So if you want to watch a video, you do not have to log into the site.

How do I login?

The only things you have to do is click on sign in and enter your username and password. You can continue afterwards.

I forgot my password! What do i do now?

If you do forget your password which is likely, then you will have to click the 'FORGOT PASSWORD' when you click on 'sign in' located at the top right hand corner. Afterwards, you will have to enter your Youtube username and verification code which is a few character located beside the verification box.
After filling these steps, an email will be sent to your email address to rest your password.

I forgot my username! What shall I do?

It is similar to the steps above. You will have to click the 'FORGOT USERNAME' button once you click the 'sign in' button. You will have to enter your email address and the verification code and an email will be sent to your email address with your username.

Commenting and messaging

Besides uploading and watching videos, you can comment on videos that you like or dislike. Did you watch a trailer of a movie that fascinated you? Thank the author by commenting on his video or send a message to them privately. You will have to be logged in as a user if you want to comment or message.

An issue I shall reveal

Since I have been on Youtube, there is nothing being done about the way some users keep arguing over little things. Please bear in mind that when you visit a lot of videos across Youtube, you will be finding an argument exploding between users for baseless things. These arguments include swearing and full of either racist or filthy language which start off bigger arguments.

Overall, I still like the site because it is full of entertainment. I do not think there is another site which is the same like Youtube.

Summary: Very good sight to use
