YouTube is the best!
Yeah, there are a ton of cat videos and
vacation videos out there...probably too many out there...that we all look at
from time to time then wonder how can I get those ten wasted minutes back. But
there are some really good videos out there too.
I’ve seen some great book trailers and movie trailers posted
and YouTube is a terrific place to catch up with friends and a party you
missed.
But for me the best thing YouTube has going for it is the How
To aspect.
YouTube is how I get things done that I never thought I
could do. I don’t know how I ever got along without YouTube.
When I needed to know how to change the line on my
weedeater...YouTube. I sat down with my weedeater and followed along with the
handsome dude.
When the switch broke on my rangehood I could have called
the repair guy, paid more than the cost of the rangehood and gotten the thing
repaired. Instead I turned to YouTube and found out how to do it myself. And it
worked!!!!!!
This latest time the dishwasher latch broke locking my
dishes inside. Good Grief! The first thing I thought was that my house is
falling down around my ears because things are always going kaput. But then I
stopped whining...the other kind of wine helped with this...and turned to
YouTube.
I plugged in How to fix door latch and bingo there it was.
It told me how to get the &^%%$ door open and how to order the parts I
needed. I took my computer down to the kitchen so I could follow the steps one
by one, pause the video to figure things out and it worked!!! This time I saved
a $90 service call plus the cost of fixing the blasted thing!
When I want to find out what’s going on in Savannah or on
Mackinac Island I go to YouTube. Last year I took a “live”
So what about you? Have you YouTubed lately?
