It can be very entertaining, although very time consuming. Youtube does a decent job of blocking out adult content, but there is still some suggestive content on here.
YouTube is a wonderful site when you are bored and want some humor, or to watch a tutorial about something.
No problems with YouTube unless you click on links in people's personal descriptions which could lead to a virus. But just watching videos is totally safe.
It's the best video hosting site. There are many interesting videos, and a few which are not. In overall, it's a very good and safe site. BUT: be careful when clicking on SHORTENED links in video descriptions, they aren't always safe! (Especially when you're looking for software cracks or similiar)
Highly entertaining site, but their new Privacy Policy and Terms of Service to take effect March 1, 2012 has very questionable concerns regarding privacy and user data.
I like it for it's free speech venue. But would not want my child surfing around learning how to commit criminal activities. Ie... lock bumping, lock picking, and any number of other skills that a child doesn't need.
This is probably my favorite website online, but be cautious... You could easily spend hours on YouTube, and some of the videos aren't super "kid-friendly." I still love it though!
