YouTube Problems

We all know what YouTube is. We use it all the time and it is a constant resource for virtually everything we could ever want to watch. YouTube is a place to broadcast yourself or just your videos for everyone to see which is done by uploading a video. YouTube may seem to be a flawless website at times, but there are and most likely will always be reputable problems with the sight just like any other.

Uploading videos can be one of the biggest problems on the site. YouTube only offers surprisingly limited options for what format you want to upload your video in. People here in North definitely think so. “I made my movie with iMovie and it wouldn’t upload at all. I spent a lot of time trying to get it to work.” (Richard Bradley Grade 12) Videos are not always compatible with YouTube; even the videos in QuickTime format are not always compatible. Other problems with the two can arise as well. Videos can take a long time to buffer. It depends on what device is streaming You Tube with but it still can have slow loading speeds. Computers and mobile devices are the most likely to be used by people to stream YouTube. These mainly used devices can often of slow loading speeds. It depends on your connection strength but much of the time it is blatantly obvious that it is just YouTube itself of that is slow. ”This video isn’t even loading, even going back a page doesn’t work.” (Shon Rought, Grade 12) Other devices like a PS3 can also have problems where the video doesn’t even load.

YouTube may have problems but it is still and probably always will be the most immense source of information and videos on the Internet.
