I've used YouTube before and found it very hit or miss. A lot of the video quality is poor. I feel bad trying to access YouTube on the information desk because our customers aren't allowed to access it, so I don't want to exempt myself from the high-bandwidth restrictions right before I explain to someone else that they're not allowed.
I do think that YouTube has applications in politics and journalism to which it has not yet been applied (the Democratic triumvirate of Obama, Clinton and Edwards lame attempts and building e-consensus notwithstanding). YouTube (and podcasting) actually has the potential to make old-school journalism (multi-national media conglomerates) obsolete. What if people stopped watching Fox and checked YouTube's commondreams.org (as yet nonexistant) hybrid site?
Imagine. . .
