16. Video Revolution
Before the launch of YouTube in 2005, there were few easy
methods available for ordinary computer users who
wanted to post videos online. With its simple interface,
YouTube made it possible for anyone with an Internet
connection to post a video that a worldwide audience
could watch within a few minutes. The wide range of topics
covered by YouTube has turned video sharing into one of
the most important parts of Internet culture.
