I'm writing my opinion on the Anthropological Introduction to You Tube by Mike Wesch. I'm part of a dying breed of people myself. You know the old fashion type who is not very computer savvy. The most I have used on the Internet is my space. On some occasions I have used you tube. The reason I have steered away from You Tube is because of the many controversial video they allow to be posted. I have never been able to understand the reason people watch it. I don't know what it is I 'am more disgusted with, the people that put these horrific things on You Tube or the millions of viewers that subject themselves to watching these videos over and over. On the contrary, I' am also impressed with how far we have come from picture tubes and mystery theatre. These videos allow us to express ourselves. Even if we express ourselves to a very small audience. You Tube now gives us the ability to watch movies we can't buy or soap operas episodes that have not yet come to network television. We can also see dance moves we don't know or sadly, even learn how to make a bomb. So then the debate begins is You Tube a convenience or a beginning to an end of morals and conscience??Think about it..If we watch the movies on You Tube,then we don't buy them. So would that mean we are stealing from the very people who are trying to earn a living by producing these videos on counter shelves. There are also such videos as people getting beat to death or the tragic death of the crocodile hunter. Why post such sadness. Is You Tube good or bad?
