Is Youtube a social site now?

I think it should go in the other corner where it says 'TV Addiction'...



>Is Youtube a social site now?

Absolutely, go pick a video at random from a YT account with more than say half a million subscribers. Go look at the comments, go look at the 'community' tab on one of those accounts pages and look at the engagement in their non-video shares as well. Go watch one of these accounts when they do a live video and the chat is often flying by faster than you can read more than one or two lines.
