Facts about YouTube
The longest Video ever on YouTube is 48 hours (2
days!)
It generates an estimated 92 billion page views each
month.
Together, we spend 2.9 billion hours on YouTube in a
month. That’s 326,294 years.
YouTube is localized in 25 countries across 43
languages
YouTube’s demographic is broad: 18-54 years old

Conclusion
In my point of view, YouTube is one of the best
sites to use for all kinds of purposes. It is the
second Google. Any information that crosses our
mind we can find the answers either on the web
of Google or in the videos of YouTube. The
advantages that YouTube holds are much more
than the disadvantages therefore YouTube is a
reliable website. I wanted to bring this topic in
order to give the girls an idea of using YouTube
as a place to upload videos and presentations
created by Zu students. It will be a nice idea to
have a YouTube icon on the Zu website where
students can click on the icon and find videos
