The Channels of YouTube (Part 2)

So what other channels can you find on YouTube?




The Gaming Channels: These are not channels I tend to visit often as I do not have a huge interest in gaming, and the content on the channels seems a bit boring to me. However as for the rest of the world these types of channels tend to be very popular. The content usually consists of someone who has recorded their computer or television screen using a downloadable software, and has layered a pre-recorded commentary over it. Some gamers such as PewDiePie or TobyGames will include a lot of humour to make the content more entertaining for the viewers however a lot of people will just describe what is happening in the game which can be very tedious to watch for some people with little patience (me).




The DIY/Tutorial Channels: These channels tend to be ones you stumble on by accident when looking for the best way to make rice pudding, or an origami Christmas card for the Grandparents. These types of channels will offer tutorials for such things as makeup, cooking and carpentry. They will provide you with tutorials on how to use a computer software or how to build a cot from scratch for your new-born baby. If you want to try something new, or find out more about doing something then YouTube can give you absolutely anything you need to accomplish that. Personally I only ever use tutorials for things like how to tie a good tie, or how to throw an American Football. You'd be surprised how easy it is to learn something when you have somebody showing you how to do it on a computer screen at home.
