YouTube - Entertainment Galore


YouTube is a great way to connect to some past and current entertainment. I watch everything from music videos (long live the 80s), live theatre and concerts, movie trailers, behind the scenes footage, bloopers, critters corner, how to videos, and the list could go on and on.

YouTube can be seen as a time waster for some but for me it's different. Calgary can be so limited in bringing big names (venue size) and I can't always travel to see my favourite artists perform live. YouTube allows me to follow my favourite artists in practically any city.

I'm also a huge broadway buff and watching Theater Talk (NYC television series) keeps me informed. Subscribing to this show is impossible and the only way I can watch this show is on YouTube. Hooray for YouTube.

YouTube is notorious for self-promotion gigs. I'm even on YouTube and not by choice and I'm not telling you. Most of it is for fun but like Facebook, I've come across a few videos and wonder. Why on earth did you do that for?

YouTube - The good, the bad and the ugly. It's out there, whether we like it or not. The good news - it's free. I like that.
