"CRAIG SCIME: Hey, it's Craig Scime from clearstarmedia.com, speaking on behalf of Expert Village and today, we're learning all about YouTube, how to get on it, how to put your own video on it, and how to navigate through their web site. It's very easy, again, you just go to youtube.com and of course, one of the things I clicked on was this tab at the top, called videos. Now that tab, as I said in the last segment, allows you to sort by different things. We clicked last time, most viewed, time today, and all categories. If I were to change this to this month, I can see the most-viewed clip based on this entire month. Now, if you want to go by rated, that means that it's not necessarily that something that somebody clicked on, but they rated it, you would click on top rated, and then again, you can click for this month, for all categories, or what have you. Most discussed people are able to give comments about your video. They might say, I love this video, give me more, or you have a horrible opinion on this, and they can type in and give a comment about it. And of course, you can go and search by their--another way to go is by category and that's this tab at the top. You can search by different categories. Let's say you really want to learn about gadgets and games, or political news and politics. Well, you can easily click on that and you'll get information. Some things might be serious, some things might be a joke, but all in all, you have to look at it and decide if it's something you want to watch. It might even be stupid, it might be insulting, revolting, that's the power of YouTube and that the power of living in America, and having the freedom of speech, something they should be very proud of to have in this country. And in the next segment, we'll look a little bit more into YouTube and of course, stay tuned because coming up in later segments, we're going to show you how to take your video and put it on YouTube. Who knows, you might go viral. What does that mean? Well, we'll find out next segment."

on 3/12/2008 His words are true. He makes it simple. I thought it was more difficult and that is why I hesitated, but I want to use it for my organization and this would be great. The power of YouTube is good for the USA -- that freedom of speech and freedom of thought and ideas to share with others is priceless.
Thanks. Can't wait until the next series. Paz, Sister Sonia.
