Will YouTube Exist Forever?
Not so long ago, Myspace was one of the first sites to introduce the concept of social networking. Myspace gave us something that Facebook has limited: coding. Profiles were completely customizable thanks to coding but it also led to slow loading times (DSL was still making its way into the household). During that time period, I remember looking through various video hosting sites to get our work into our profiles. YouTube was one of many that flooded the market but it has become the most dominant. But what does the future hold for...

YouTube has not only become a major source of entertainment but also a place for us to learn. Whether it be learning to scramble eggs or in my case learning to build this site, YouTube is a great place to find quality education.

Some may argue that the classroom experience is the most applicable place in a social and...

Check out the new design and let us know whether or not you...

Knowledge is no longer confined to those who decide to pursue formal education thanks to great sites like YouTube, Lynda.com and plenty more. So how should we educate our youth? I believe that we must spend more time teaching kids to think creatively and...

Remember that crazy 4D camera that lets you refocus after the fact? After the initial teaser, the Lytro has now gone official, with a $399 list price ($499 model also on the way) and “early 2012″ availability. A hands-on demo of the oddly-shaped consumer camera is after the jump, but as I asked in the original post, are there motion and professional applications of this technology? Well, turns out there are, and RED just dropped a hint that they’ve already got a prototype.

Many people have told me that when you pursue your passion you will never work a day in your life. It was during my 13th year of life that I realized two of my biggest passions: video production and business. Over the years, I’ve spent countless hours learning and improving these skills. For college, I went to La Sierra University and received my BS in Accounting while leading our world renown Students in Free Enterprise (SIFE) team. SIFE gave me the opportunity to travel to and implement business education projects in Haiti, Colombia,...
