I think this year, I began to realize what an incredible social media site YouTube is. It used to be that Facebook consumed too much of my time. Now YouTube is giving the social networking site a run for its money. YouTube has also impacted older generations..
This year has been pretty crazy for my parents, especially over the past four months. They both have a lot on their plate both personally and professionally. Unfortunately, they weren't able to make it to watch me play this year. I love seeing my parents in the stands, but I completely understand. Lucky for them, one of my teammates father made it to most of our tournaments and films us. Mr. Woodward is very good about promptly posting highlight reels on YouTube. My dad was telling me about how much he enjoyed being able to watch the highlights and how important it was to him.
YouTube has served as my personal rewind. American Idol performances, volleyball highlights and Rebecca Black music videos are all staples on my channel. It means a lot that my parents can watch me play, even though if it's through a YouTube highlight video. I look for YouTube to play an even more prominent role in the social media world.
