Reflection No.8

What a wonderful reunion dinner I had with my family. With a full stomach, lets get back to work!

Lets recap. We did a lesson on Youtube last Friday. Never had i really sit down and think of what's the factors that leads to the overwhelming popularity of Youtube. This lesson really make me think about it and from the point of view of if I'm the CEO of Youtube. WOW!!! Although that's something that will never happen, lets imagine.

Can i ever live without the existence of Youtube?
The answer is a small YES. I was not born in the Internet Age. All these cyber started not long after i was born. Even so, i rarely get in touch with the net only tillthe age of 16. I had my first computer at the age of 12 but only gain access to the net at 16, after my O level. Thus, for 16 years of my life, i'm living as peacefully as it is. Now, i use the net for academic and leisure purposes. Iwould say i play online games more than I watch online videos. Thus, i will still be able to contiune my life as it is without Youtube.

However, i will not deny the fact that Youtube really provide a good platform for education purposes. Many of us use Youtube for different purposes and there is definitely a small minority who use it as a educational tool. As a fashion student, subscribing to runway show from Paris, London, New York and Milan is important to keep up to the trend of top Fashion Designers from the top fashion houses. However, that will definitely cost a bomb to most of us. From youtube, i can watch the show for free. The only hassle is to load the many many parts to connect the whole runway show.

Well, that explain my small YES. In a way, there is no definite answer to it. HAHA!!
