Am I the only person in the world who hates Utube (or YouTube)?! Or actually any video clips period? I like to read the news but if I see it’s a video clip I do not click. I like to read blogs but if I see any sort of video clips count me out. The last several cameras I have had have had the ability to record clips (as have my cell phones) but I never use it. I just don’t like video clips.
I must be a freak!
Hiding my head in shame
I used to hate video clips before I finally got broadband, now I don't
mind, in fact I even post them myself. But they're not for everyone and you
are entitled to your opinion. But if I do post a clip, it's usually all I
post. If I want to illustrate a post I use photos.
Well it wouldn't do if we were all the same. I actually quite like videos
and I have often put a series of photos into a slide show as I thought this
was easier for people to view than having to upload masses of photos in one
post. Although it's gratifying when people look at what you've done I
respect the fact that it's a turn off for some and that's Ok with me.
I know a lot of people don't like YouTube, you're definitely not alone. I
personally like them and have sat and laughed at some great videos.
I have seen a few people who do not like YouTube. I love it but only watch
something funny.
Robocop will watch anything on YouTube. Thing 1 will look for music. She
cracks me up.
But don't hang your head in shame. We are all different and that is what
makes things interesting. :)
I'm with you on the news. I hate how CNN.com mixes the video clips in with
the news articles. I'll read an interesting headline, only to see that it's
actually a video. Even with broadband, I don't like waiting for the clip to
load, and I don't like sitting through the commercial. (However, if I know
for sure that's it Jeannie Moos, I'd wait; unfortunately, I never know if
it's going to be Jeannie Moos.)
I don't seem to mind them as much on blogs as long as it's just an
occasional thing. I can skip them if I want. But I really get annoyed
when CNN.com has a news story only as a video. I never watch them on
there, and instead, I'll just google the story to "read" it on another
site.
