Okay so first REAL blog YOUTUBE

Hey guys,
okay so this blog was set up by a teacher in my media studies class and well it's kinda cool....I like the idea cause media isn't really as 'low tech' as before and now Blogs, Facebook, and other things like youtube are pulled into the whole media thing so thinking about the internet and stuff I was thinking this blog would be about Youtube...AKA my life!!! lol no so pretty much any music you have seen on youtube I have seen: Marie Digby, Chester See, Esmee Denters, Cristina Marie, and best of all David Choi. What I have found out in the last year I have been with youtube is that it is FILLED with useless info, very cool and sometimes creepy entertainment, good singers, bad singers, and amazing talent and now if your good enough you could be signed as a singer or actor as a few lucky people have...for example Esmess Denters...other wise normal 18 year old girl of the neatherlands is now signed and is touring with Justin Timberlake as his opening act and all of it started from a few videos of singing with her stolen sisters webcam NOW what are the chances of it happening again right? Well meet Marie Digby...singer/songwriter now signed with Hollywood Records after she blew up on youtube singing her own cover of "Umberella" a Rianna song and now the song has sold over $15,000 on Itunes, but all the money goes to the 'Save the Music Foundation' another chance at fame. Although there are really good singers and musicians on youtube not all of them get seen untill a few more videos in when they get deeper into the youtube connections and doing popular songs or their own covers.

Now I know i've only been talking about musicians but I'm also one myself so i have to get the props to my music nerds in the house WHOOT WHOOT but i also have to give it up for the actors and comedians like Smosh AKA Ian and Anthony, very good actors/comedians that have their own shirts that they sell from their website and featuring them wearing them on Youtube, cleaver huh? and their vids are very funny. Also I have to say another actor/comedian is HappySlip AKA Kristen she is very funny and has also come close to winning a youtube award but lost out to Smosh, i recomend watching both.

Now Youtube isn't just about a few people making a lot of vids its about LOTS AND LOTS LOTS AND LOTS LOTS AND LOTS LOTS AND LOTS of peole making vids you can almost find about anything that was on TV in youtube like my faveorite show 'So you think you can dance' I watch it religiously (even the re-runs! yeah I'm a nerd) or scenes from you fave movies like Ancourman or Superbad, or whatever you want.

So next time your on Youtube look up random things and you might come across some....Interesting....creepy....funny....things lol my fave vid EVER would have to be 'Charlie the unicorn goes to Candy Mountian' its about the most random stupid thing ever and i can resite alllllllll the words to it...thats kinda sad....but thats my recomendation and some Info! have fun!! :D
