YOUTUBE

Youtube is one of the worlds largest video sharing platform.This site allows users to upload, rate, watch, and share videos for various purposes such as tutorials, entertainment, self made animations and much more. However, all of the videos uploaded has to follow their guidelines in order to maintain on the platform. 

Nowadays, being a 'youtuber' is a payable job that is quite famous amongst teens and young-adults. Youtubers upload videos such as travel vlogs, makeup tutorials and even gaming playthroughs. They can even make videos regarding their daily lives and still get views as long as it is entertaining for the audience. There is no limit to how old can one be to be a youtuber. 

One of the most subscribed channel on Youtube is a user who goes by the name 'Pewdiepie'.

  

Pewdiepie, real name Felix Arvid Ulf Kjellberg, is a Swedish Youtuber who is famous for his game playthroughs. Basically, he records himself playing video games and recieves views for it. It is much similar to watching sports but instead, you are able to see the game storyline and the players reaction. Today, Pewdiepie has more than 57 million subscribers and the number increases every single day. The total views he recieves thus far is 16+ billion. Because of this, he is one of the richest people to have make a living out of his own likings.

In my opinion, Youtube holds a great future. There is always millions and millions of viewers on Youtube. In the future, it is not possible that Youtube can hold videos that acts as an online course for those who intend to study any subject without a specific major. Also, I can see that youtube is able to take th eplaces of Telivisions as they are very limitless in what you can find.

In conclusion, The future of Youtube remains broad as it will always be a platform that everyone uses. Youtube will expand and remain one of the top platforms.
