Do You Know How YouTube Community Started. You tube is a place for sharing videos that you find interesting with your friends. Recently Google has launched YouTube in India also.Now lets go back a few years. In February 2005, three PayPal employees launched the beta test version of a Web site called YouTube. They designed the site to let people share videos with the rest of the world. In November 2005, Sequoia Capital invested more than $3 million in the site, and a month later YouTube emerged as a full fledged Web destination.
It didn't take long for the site to become popular, and in November 2006, Internet search engine goliath Google purchased YouTube for $1.65 billion.One of the most publicized controversies involves copyright infringement. YouTube doesn't prescreen videos before they appear on the site members upload thousands of videos every day. Sometimes, YouTube members will upload television shows or clips from movies to share with other people. If the YouTube member doesn't own the copyright to that material, there could be trouble.
