What do you use it for? When I think of Youtube, I think of music; I just like to look up music videos and band interviews when I visit the site. But it looks like a majority of whats on Youtube is homemovies-type videos. I guess that's where the name came from though. w

I'm like you, I do have one, but I'm rarely on it - and when I do go on it, it's most likely to watch (famous) music videos and to listen to music without having to download it. lol. I don't generally like those "HOME MADE" videos, most of them tend to be stupid. I actually try to stay away from YouTube in general because people are so awful over there! Not to stereotype, but if you leave a comment - whether it's nice or hateful, chances are (99% of the time) someone WILL pick a fight with you about it! Everyone there is a drama queen. Ha. So even if I listen to a song I like, and someone's being a jerk in the "comments" area or whatever..I don't even bother defending it anymore. Let people think what they wanna think, right?

omg I know! There are so many rude and immature comments on YouTube. I think that may be one reason I don't go on so much, lol.

Yes, I have a Youtube account because I am a video maker so I need a way to share my creations. It's fun showing your projects to the world and seeing their responses, sometimes they like it, sometimes not, but it's also fun to see lol. Plus, it allows you to comment on videos, which is good to do as well. Cheers!

yeah, Youtube can be good if you are a video/film-maker. Its a good way to get your work out there and see how people respond.

I hve a youtube account. I use it for business. It has't worked in a while though. I do theater and I have a few clips of my one man show there. I mean people have seen it and I've gotten a little work from it, so its worth it. Also a lot of what is on youtube is girls shaking their booty for the camera.

I do have a youtube account. But like you, I do not log in there always. I have uploaded some videos, If I am not mistaken, there were about 5 of them. They were videos of my first aid training simulation. Well, I do watch you tube from time to time.

Yes, I have a youtube account but I mainly use it to watch the videos that other people have created! I have yet to create a video of my own but I'm trying to muster the courage to do something like this. I have lots of videos stored in my favourites and it's just a nice site to visit at times when you want to take a break from things and watch something silly, funny, hilarious or downright stupid!. I have links to some of my favourite videos on my profile page here on My Lot. Anyway, I guess there's a little entertainment there! Andrew

I use to have one. But I don't enjoy being called derogatory terms by people simply because I have a different opinion and being told that if they could find me then I would be murdered. That was a bit much and I reported it to youtube before I had my account deleted but I don't know what youtube officials did. There are some psycho people online at times and they can get really agry for no reason at all.

I have a YouTube account. I use it to watch videos and keep some video links as 'favorites' so I can find it faster. I also used it to upload videos that I shared with my family.

I do have a youtube account. I listen to music on it, and have it so I can listen to music that has parental advisory, and you need an account to listen to it. I also use it to comment on peoples videos. This one time someone uploaded a really rude video about my friends mom and I had to go and stand up for her, so I went and gave the person a piece of my mind and reported their video, which got taken off youtube.

I got one but never really used it. I was using it to teach one of my friends how to speak English, but he never really put much into it... So I donĀ“t currently use a youtube account.

I do have an account, my husband has uploaded one video to it from a wrestling event that we went to in our local area and other than that we just use it to watch videos but like you we barely even log into the account but it is still there if we need or want to use it.
