Thoughts about You Tube

I am a novice to this site. I spent a little bit on it lately and really don't like it too much. Many random people sharing some crazy videos. I think it could be good to share information, but I found myself watching pointless videos. I wasted a lot of time. I guess having the access to the information makes it a great web site. So many people are able to share their own videos as well as their opinions, once again collaborating. I did notice that people were meeting from You Tube. It's definitely a way of social networking. I guess this would also be considered an affinity space along with My Space. Here people can share many different activities as well as common interests. I need to spend more time on the site.
