It's a well-known website to over all the world, that youtube is a website for video posting. Some of the videos are for entertainment, education, news & politics, travel and events etc. We could view most of the videos without logging in or signing up but as for some we have to sign up for an account. Having an account over at youtube allow us to have more priviledges. For example, we could watch the videos that only allow members to watch and also, if we watched a particular video and like it alot, we could click and link them under our favourites.

It feel that it's a good website because it allow people to express their feeling on a video and also guiding people on certain things, e.g dance. Besides that, it also allow people to share clips with their loved one and also people for all over the world.

It's a user-friendly website. The main links and the box for searching are above. On the main page itself, there are some featured and promoted videos for all to view. If we want to watch more videos, we could just type in the search box and related videos will come out in a list. And also, there are also help by telling us we could try other helping words to get the video we want. We could also choose how we want the result to be categorized, eg. sort by, uploaded & type.
