The Music Video & The Web

In the mid 90’s to mid 2000’s, I remember going to MTV’s website to find my videos and I couldn’t find them. Then in February 2005 three former PayPal employees created YouTube. A video-sharing website on which users can upload, view and share videos. The company is based in San Bruno, California, and uses Adobe Flash Video and HTML5 technology. Best of all every video I had ever made was THERE! The Music Video & The Web
