Why *I* like YouTube
Everyone has been talking about YouTube lately. Newsweek had an article recently about how YT's traffic now equals that of traditional media sites like the NY Times.
I also just read this blog post, from Church of the Customer, that lists 10 reasons why YouTube is better than Google Video.
While I agree with some of those points, the reason I like YouTube is simple -- the content. People have uploaded clips of just about everything. Roller Derby videos are one of my favorites.
A close second? Girl fight videos. Is that wrong?
