Through YouTube many users are taking the websites advantages of publicity and using their own creative ideas to become famous through it. One example would be the boy in this video named Phil Defranco who created his own show on YouTube and posts new videos on a regular basis since 2006. His show is well-known and viewed by many of the users of YouTube which is very impressive as he expresses all his own comedic thoughts and ideas. He is now so well known that he has his own Wikipedia page that fans can check out. Phil is only one of the many people on YouTube that have become famous do to their ideas and creativity; many people have captured a hilarious, embarrassing once in a life time moment they have posted and become famous due to it.
This is almost a sad reality because users on this site are becoming famous for things that would have never even been talked about thirty years ago. It’s sad because people are carrying around cameras everywhere they go just in case someone does something absurd or outrageous that they can then take and post as their own video, perhaps without the actual person in the video ever knowing it and displaying it to a world-wide audience. However, not all the producers and users of facebook take humiliating videos of others and post it, many of them use their talents, wits, and comedic approaches in order to get noticed; such as the famous Phil Defranco. YouTube, therefore has become a great site of free expression where people can post anything they want for others to view and comment on, and pick and chose who to agree with or disagree.
