How to Locate a Person on YouTube
YouTube is a video streaming website that hosts user-generated content. It is totally free to register for this site, and once you do, uploading your videos and sharing them with the public takes only a matter of minutes. You can also add friends and subscribe to their videos on YouTube so you can get updates every time they upload a new video, comment on one or rate one. Searching for other YouTube users is just as easy thanks to the site's search function.
