History of a world's largest video sharing portal...
At early 2005, there they had a little dinner party, at the apartment in San Francisco and nobody ever thought that something huge is just about to happen... So later sometimes, for a guy who was there wanted to share a video clip which happened to be taken at that party with one of other friends who apparently was absent to the party-time, But unfortunately there were not much ("any" to be exact) such leads to get this done, hence.... the root thought to give the birth of this giant web processing application came out from the 3 PayPal employees who happened to owe the whole story above, namely Chad Hurley, Steve Chen, and Jawed Karim.
This is the very first video uploaded to the YouTube, happened to be uploaded at 8:27PM on Saturday April 23rd, 2005. The video was shot by Yakov Lapitsky at the San Diego Zoo and uploaded by Jawed Karim. The video goes with the quote of "Me at the zoo"...
Today, YouTube has been the world's 3rd most popular website,(Over 3 billion videos viewed/day) and 48 hours of video are uploaded every minute, resulting in nearly 8 years of content uploaded every day; Over 12 million people are connected and auto-sharing to at least one social network; and 150 years of YouTube video are watched every day on Facebook; in every minute more than 500 tweets contain YouTube links.
