YouTube does such a service to people.

I find it to be amazing how YouTube lets people upload hundreds of videos on anything they want for free -- free of advertising. You can even embed videos to external websites. There are no rules aside from no porn and things like that; you can use it -- as much as you want -- for your own personal needs.

Yeah, lots of senseless videos on there too. But that's how it is with interactive media. One's got to dig through to find the gems by himself. Noone's going to serve you on a platter *cough* television *cough*

I am amazed by the internet on a daily basis.

Yeah. Its pretty amazing you can embed videos in forums and such these days. We take all this shit for granted but if you went back in time 10 years and brought your future-self to this time to check out the tech, you/he/she would jizz/squirt themselves.

All the senseless videos are a testament to its openness. And the concept of TV is still cool, although there's a lot of crap on TV and I hardly watch it anymore.

When I first encountered the web back in 1994, inline images were still new, Netscape was a rising star and 14.4 kbs modems were leet. So yeah, I'd have to agree to that statement.

I know. It was ridiculously slow, now that you reflect back on it.
