- Bukowsky, on 11/13/2009, -3/+63The best part of YouTube, is reading the asinine comments people leave. I could waste hours reading the dumb ***** people leave as comments..
- Frankzulla, on 11/13/2009, -3/+61YouTube has some gems but it's riddled with trash and slow performance, especially as of late.
- eastwood24, on 11/13/2009, -0/+32I enjoy the elevated level of anger in the comments and the creative ways curse words are utilized.
- jrm125, on 11/13/2009, -2/+34YouTube has everything. Full access results in tons of crap.
I'd like to say the cream rises to the top, but there's no accounting for taste. - dhartin, on 11/14/2009, -2/+31yea, its a lot like digg
- GorfTron, on 11/14/2009, -1/+23Youtube has taught me that angry cats are very funny.
- Ryan0617, on 11/13/2009, -0/+17I enjoy a troll successfully start a racial war with a simple line such as 'What is a gook?". Then watch as people fall hook and line and try to argue why their race is better than the other.
- jaytek13, on 11/14/2009, -0/+15The "*****" is because it's an open platform. It's not filtered by corporations, it's not approved by committees who think it will appeal to the 18-34 range, it's not subject to cancellation because it's not pulling in enough ad dollars. Say what you want about the "*****", but without that *****, we wouldn't have the gems.
- robbieAreBest, on 11/13/2009, -2/+17"Because we let 7 year old waste storage, bandwidth and processing, we discover the future of television."
- Infowarsdotcom, on 11/14/2009, -1/+16This is why I hate mainstream media...one view sold for profit.
This is why I love the internet...all views never for for profit. - mwtapp, on 11/13/2009, -2/+16You are what you watch.
- Demalaxy, on 11/14/2009, -2/+13"Frightening"
That was the guys response, old people once again, scared that their TV is losing its flare. Kind like older people and their radios. - valis, on 11/13/2009, -1/+11YouTube is filled with what some people think a lot of other people want to see. It's a sort of lens on the inner workings of a society that knows its being watched.
- stackolee, on 11/14/2009, -0/+7Slightly off topic, but I strongly dislike moderators who think they're doing stand up. The goal is to prod the speaker into giving short, interesting monologues, not to impress the audience with your sense of humor, or to interject your opinion at every opportunity.
It's hard enough to sit through Chris Anderson promoting his book while he was laying off staff (http://gawker.com/5391319/on-firing-day-busy-wired ... I don't need to watch a moderator hogging the spotlight. - summersam, on 11/14/2009, -3/+10What he means is that CONTENT -- not the service -- on YouTube is full of crap, and it is.
- MtheoryX, on 11/14/2009, -0/+7Oh ***** me :(
- Demalaxy, on 11/14/2009, -2/+8I think the evolutionary process of throwing a bunch of crap against the wall and seeing what sticks is a good analogy for it. I mean, you can even see the process occur with things like Valve fan videos, Youtube poops and the like. There are some really unfunny and bland ones, but then you sometimes hit gold. It all started with one person messing with a "Meet the Team" video, or a Link CDi Clip and people go, "That's cool let me try that." And then you get things like Louis's "G-G-Grabin' Pills" which causes people to make fan responses with the other survivors (not as popular as the predecessor), evolution in memes like that is interesting from a scientific perspective.
That's only an example, however, fan videos of star wars is not the future of television, because of something called um copyright. TV is not a fan based medium. It's a profit money making one. Lucas is fine with you making fanworks and sticking it up on sites where people can see it because it'll make conversation involving his product. Put that product onto to television though, and he's probably going to want a piece of the pie... And a 7 year old doesn't have a big enough pie. Which I guess is also an evolutionary process, but a different 'fitness' schematic - BillE3, on 11/13/2009, -0/+6After all they are our future leaders that will be in charge some day.
- MacHarborGuy, on 11/14/2009, -2/+7Yeah, sour cream
- elgilicious, on 11/14/2009, -0/+5The content may be crap, but you can avoid much of it. The service is crap, too, and you can't avoid that *****.
Videos stop at random times. You can't see the entire titles in the "similar videos" screen that appears at the end of a video. Playlists and quicklists are more complicated to create and organize than they have to be. Videos restart randomly when you exit fullscreen mode. And, of course, the new beta design is absolute fecal matter. - anaclagon, on 11/14/2009, -1/+6Now. ;(
- craftyguy, on 11/14/2009, -1/+6Definitely takes me back to the 'buffering...' realplayer days!!
- bde5, on 11/14/2009, -0/+5Or Balkan countries start civil wars over a youtube video.
- anaclagon, on 11/14/2009, -0/+4Youtube edu ***** rocks!
- HotLeper, on 11/14/2009, -1/+5I don't think their flagging system works well. They are way too many hate channels on there.
- gobbleplex, on 11/14/2009, -0/+4What is a man?
- forgedfour, on 11/14/2009, -2/+6you didnt watch the video, did you?
- Zaxcomp, on 11/14/2009, -0/+3But the means to achieve it generally are.
- bklny, on 11/14/2009, -0/+3Hey at least its free crap
- Demalaxy, on 11/14/2009, -0/+3A legitimate cause for concern? People watching the video of a hamster falling off its wheel on youtube is really no different then people watching it on America's funniest home videos. Only I think its less scary because they didn't have to sit through Bob Sagot monologues to see it.
- Fand, on 11/14/2009, -1/+4Who are these guys with their little minds who don't see the possible potentials in the future of television? Are they claiming that television is good at the moment? I would highly disagree.
- temujin1234, on 11/14/2009, -0/+3They are often put up by the copyright holders themselves. YouTube is also a good place for gems no one in their right mind would publish. What what? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fbGkxcY7YFU
- zsavior, on 11/14/2009, -0/+3The future of television can really just be summed up by catering to peoples wants. Right now television attempts, at being artistic and such but really they are regurgitating what ever becomes popular. So every generation cares about sex, and hospital shows on prime time are always popular ; Hmm ok Lets make Grey's Anatomy sex plus a Hospital!
Now the former top Hospital drama was what? E.R.; but it fell to sexy time with Nurses and doctors I mean it is an on screen fetish. So what does NBC do? Well Follow suit and create a show named Mercy with a female doctor love triangle. The networks keep regurgitating the same thing till nobody watches and then they are surprised and stunned when people stop watching. It isn't that Youtube is worse crap than TV, It is that Youtube Isn't THEIR crap.
Tell me how a Show about a bunch of attractive people humping IN a hospital is any better than watching a cat play a piano? Yes they both maybe stupid and mind numbing(even though I love keyboard cat) but one is Mind numbing with a million dollar cast and a production budget, made by corporate sponsors. The other is some poor schmuck like me posting up something he finds amusing that I might to and with out commercial interruption. Yea sorry for not watching your pretty people, and not relating. - LarkStew, on 11/14/2009, -0/+3How exactly would I Gilligan's Island your arse? No don't tell me...
- bde5, on 11/14/2009, -0/+2I can find lots of crap on vimeo too.
- BerateBirthers, on 11/14/2009, -7/+9The gems are copyright violations.
- quamb, on 11/15/2009, -1/+3Youtube comments are awful. Makes one seriously loose faith in the human race.
- cyberdork, on 11/14/2009, -2/+4And that's why I applaud youtube for extending its HD support.
It's the only way to keep quality sites such as vimeo free from youtube crap. - Demalaxy, on 11/14/2009, -0/+2They couldn't be any worse then Bush right?
*Watches YouTube*
Um... nevermind. - GauteHauk, on 11/14/2009, -0/+2Watch what you watch.
- elgilicious, on 11/15/2009, -0/+2Remember that next time you sit through a Fox News broadcast
- PresidentWikis, on 11/15/2009, -0/+1The only way to get quality content out of YouTube for a specific category is to use a video aggregator.
For example http://www.ISeeNews.com does a good job of pulling in News videos from youtube vs. the youtube on-site news category is full of garbage. - quamb, on 11/15/2009, -0/+1Yeah Vimeo is good in that it has a community that finds gems and seem like actual decent educated people. But in reality, it still has 95% crap like all the other video sites.
- piieerrrree, on 11/14/2009, -0/+1To add to elgilicious' critiques, have you ever tried reporting something on youtube? ***** impossible.
- funkyloki, on 11/15/2009, -0/+1You should try Greasemonkey for Firefox. It allows user scripts to be run on a web page that can alter the viewing experience dramatically by modifying the way the YouTube page is displayed, from the videos and sidebar, to the comments and ads. Hundreds of scripts for all kinds of websites at the second link.
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/748
http://userscripts.org/ - elgilicious, on 11/15/2009, -0/+1Alas, I use Chrome. I'll look into it anyway.
- krisrm, on 11/15/2009, -1/+2I love complaining about how much free stuff sucks.
- fattony89, on 11/15/2009, -0/+1not really true, a lot of youtube channels have youtube support and the people who run them get paid. If they have a huge amount of views, they get a decent amount of income.
- Unikraken, on 11/14/2009, -2/+3You have AIDS. I'm so sorry for you.
