Video production

What is YouTube and what are the services that it provides its users?

YouTube is a video sharing website on which users can upload, share, and view videos. YouTube uses Adobe Flash Video to display a wide variety of video content including movie clips and music videos, as well as amateur content such as video blogging and short orignial videos. Most of the content on YouTube has been uploaded by individuals, although media companys inlcuding BBC, CBS offer some of their material through the site. Unregistered users may use the site by watching videos but registered users may upload videos (unlimited number). R18 content is only available to registered users.
