I'm curious about the way we eoffers use youtube.

Do you browse it all day long? Do you click anytime someone links something? Do you never use it? Why? why? why?

I typically mimize my youtube usage. When it came out, I was still on dialup (though not for very long), but even with dsl, I find myself unwilling to play videos. There's still a wait for some of them (or was before we moved up in the dsl bracket ;o), they make my laptop run really hot, and I'm really not that interested in looking up videos.

I do click some links, but not usually, and almost always only if I know it's something I would be interested in watching. I do surf on there sometimes, but not usually. I do add videos there.

I sometimes listen to songs I don't have on itunes, or watch some common anime. It's good for lulz.

I youtub about once or twice a week, usually. Sometimes I go on marathon youtubs for a few hours like I did yesterday watching Sesame Street clips from the 70s.

I like Sesame Street.

If I watch a movie from it, I usually use the PS3 cause the quality seems to be better. :love:

I despise Youtube and will only go there to watch pirated anime or show my friends music videos.

Before I got iTunes and an iPod, I used it to watch music videos. I even have a couple tunes I can't find on iTunes on my favourites. Now I only use it to view comic video game reviews, really.

You rely on YouTube for anime, you sick sorry excuse for an anime fan.

I only use youtube to either:
1) listen to a song/watch a music video I like
2) look for clips of movies and stuff I like or to show somebody
3) when somebody links me to something funny on there.

I don't use it a great lot. :jess:

I have it in the Firefox search bar, so I only go to Youtube when something I want to see pops into my head. Most often, I'll be talking to someone about music and look it up on Youtube so they can listen to it. I never just keep Youtube open or go browsing through random stuff. I don't really like Flash players very much.

Been on a huge Zombies ate my Neighbors kick recently.

I don't rely on it. I just use it when I can, because I'm cheap.

I like going to the site that hosts videos deleted by YouTube for violating terms of service. Most of it is some pretty good porn.

I love Youtube n.n

I like bombarding everyone on Yahoo! or MSN with links to videos I'm watching even though I know they won't like it much S:

2 years ago I spent a fair amount of time on YouTube. I have something like 32 videos with a total of 250,000+ views, but that's not very good by YouTube standards. :( I frequently watch stuff, but only if directed there by something else, like here or on Reddit.

My friend who lived down the hall was the kid who did "Daft Hands" and he left multiple times this year (The Ellen Show, Weezer music video) etc and I was a tad jealous. That's what YouTube can get you: EXPOSURE! If you're lucky...

I use YouTube mostly for music (http://youtube.com/watch?v=zf2aIVKp1OY), researching certain (http://youtube.com/watch?v=NfV5NL3sKzI) events (http://youtube.com/watch?v=GwVYcCRr4Pc), misc. projects (http://youtube.com/watch?v=9EIQxwotn3k), and pranks (http://youtube.com/watch?v=rUSTXUis_ys).

(If you're wondering about that last link, I'm going to try to rig one of those things up to look like a spider and scare a bunch of people.)

Not a big fan of youtube. My internet connection is very slow (10Mbps :cry:) so, I feel like its a waste of precious time. I listen to some songs from movies like "Think of Me", "Phantom of the Opera" and some music videos, when I feel like it.

I just use it for music videos I have 8 playlists or so ^^" If Youtube didn't have all those music videos I'd never use it

Never use it, don't click links, only use it if people are near the computer and navigate to it and I am just sitting there watching the videos that are crap that other people pretend are funny.
