As a fan of Clay Aiken, I have come to enjoy YouTube. It has given me the opportunity to re-live many Clay Aiken memories and, even more importantly, has allowed me to watch many artistic montages by some talented fans.
YouTube was founded by three former PayPal employees, who, after witnessing the boom of online grassroots video, realized the need for a decent service that made the process of uploading, watching and sharing videos hassle-free. They registered the domain YouTube.com on February 15th, 2005 and developed the site over the following months from a garage in Menlo Park.
The service of YouTube is completely free for its users. The company makes it money by having banner advertising, sponsorships, partnerships and promotions.
The biggest problem with YouTube seems to be copyright infringements. There have not been a lot of lawsuits over copyright infringement as the site has taken down videos to settle some complaints. It is up to the copyright holders to issue the takedown notice.
One of the great things about YouTube is that the concept – uploading, viewing and sharing videos seems to appeal to nearly every age, race, and nationality. Their growth has been truly phenomenal. Used by millions everyday, they have made an exceptional name for themselves and have become the company that changed the way the world watches videos.
