Brain Teaser. What's a humungous video network website that has millions of users? If you guessed "YouTube" then, by George, you have guessed correctly!

YouTube has become such a popular website, that we doubt there is a person out there who hasn't heard of it.

Have you ever wondered who feeds the beast named "YOUTUBE" or why they do it? Two talented young YouTube users gave us these answers, and guess what? They go to school right here at Brighton.

Why would you do it? Let us tell you why! Zach is a part of a YouTube account called properllama. He made a video, "How to Dance to Dubstep," because he thought it was just plain fun. It's also cool to look at yourself on the internet. Watch and learn, friends. http://youtu.be/caUMKz_-HYQ.

Sophomore Ryker Kimball makes YouTube videos, he says, simply because he's bored. He doesn't make them that often but he's been on YouTube for about 3 years now. His account Rykerkimball15 has videos from slick snowboarding stunts to "How to make German Waffles" (http://youtu.be/55nEVFJAbK4). “Me gusta mucho Youtube,” Ryker said, which for those not fluent in the Spanish tongue means “I like YouTube much.” He is an experienced veteran with many talents.

We have came across another YouTuber with a long-term reason for having an account. Sophomore Hayden Paul wants to get into video production when he grows up. He has quite a bit of creative and genius videos on his channel eggheadproduction101. Hayden tries to make them about once every two weeks! He and his friends recently made a Batman spoof for Jordan Marcoft's presidential run in the American Problems class. Hayden also hopes to enter his video "Decisions" (http://youtu.be/De_KLRWTxLA) into a teen film festival in California soon.

So readers. That's why we do it. It's something fun to do that could give you some video-making experience! If you feel up to it, go for gold and make some videos of your own!
