In
the age where we can share our ideas easier than ever with and electronic
device. There are many different ways in
which we commutate, wither it a phone call, a text message, an image online, or
videos. The most popular way is to share a video on YouTube. While YouTube isn't
the only video base website out there it is the one that has broken thought the
public conscious.
Common
Users VS. Content Creators
The
user base of YouTube is separated into two selection, one group is the content
creators and the other is the people who watch the videos. This is where
communication digital age really comes into play.
Common
Users
With
the people who watch these video are often not known by their real names but
instead known by user names. This give the user a sense of freedom to post
whatever they feel like, for better or for worst. This give the user a layer of
protection from the general public knowing their true identity. Some people
will use this sense of safety to negative to other users on the site, on the
Internet this act is called trolling, which is an act of posting native comment
towards any person or group. On the other side, YouTube keeps track of every
user's full names, date of birth and emails; this is given when the user is
signs up for an account on the website and a user account is needed to be able
to upload and comment on videos.

Content Creators
On
the public side of YouTube are the content creators themselves, these are the
people who make the video content is on the site. Most of them are known by the
full names, this is done in order to connect with their audience members. A
great example of this would the video produced by Rooster Teeth and Achievement
Hunter, after watching only one or two of their videos you know everyone name
who was part of the video. Since they are in the spotlight their action are
more watched and will hear it if they say or do something that the audience doesn't
agree with.
In The End
When
we are online are action are always being monitor, but how close depends will
be different user to user. It will up to the user wither they want the
information out there or not.
