second posting on required blogs

Since alot of students use Youtube and the site is making headlines with a recent lawsuit, I see this article being very relevant to many college students. As 2008 comes near, the elections are heating up. YouTube, seeing the urge to help, is in the opening stages of launching a "CitizenTube" section of the site, which will contain videos for candidates in the 2008 elections. Since a novice user can find YouTube a little disorganized, putting all of the election videos in one easy-to-use section will definately increase pageviews and allow for addition ad revenue. No timetable was given in the blog but I definately am excited to see what YouTube has in store for us.

I definetly did not know about YouTubes plans to make an election video site for the 2008 election. This is a great idea because I know that I don't know as much as I should about the candidates and it would be great to have somewhere to go online to watch videos of them talking about their beliefs rather then watching some commercial sponsored by their supporters.
