People forget that YouTube was created in in February 2005 by former PayPal employees—Chad Hurley, Steve Chen, and Jawed Karim.
That's interesting, I didn't realize Youtube was created in 2005. It seems like it's been around forever. Do you create content for youtube?
No I don't. But my son has hundreds of video game live videos up there. And Google bought YouTube only 1 year later in 2006 for 1.65 billion! Can you imagine?!?! 
I can't even imagine! Google knows when to hop on a good deal! Youtube is such a major platform now with tons of investors.
Exactly plus its offers users to generate material or corporations to generate material.  Very wide range.
That's true! Even though it's worth billions, it's great that users and content creators can still generate income with the platform.
And most of the content is by users. But they do allow CBS, the BBC, Vevo, and Hulu to offer special programs via a partnership program.
Wow! I didn't even know they were partnered with Hulu. I watch media on there daily! They've expanded quite a bit!
