YouTube – a playground for the amateurs, the professionals, the activists, the nutters, the gamers, the singers, the wannabees, the Vloggers, the babies and the cats.  ITube, YouTube, TheyTube, we all watch the Tube, via sound and picture bites just long enough to hold the attention spans of this digital age.  A generation have permanently switched off to the TV in the family living room, leaving parents and grandparents to watch those broadcast images ‘old style’, while the internet savvy switch on to mobile devices that give them what they want to see, when they want to see it.  You want the visual what, why, who, where and how of just about anything and everything?  Past and present?  You’ll find it on YouTube.
