YouTube is 5 years Old

one of my long term goals is to reach kids in Scotland through the power of television. I had all these great ideas of a kids cable channel and ways to spread the Gospel message creatively. Then I saw some interesting numbers regarding YouTube's 5th Birthday.

YouTube is localized in 23 countries across 24 different languages. On average a person spends 15 minutes a day watching YouTube. More Video is uploaded to YouTube than all 3 major US networks have created in 60 Years. Hundreds of Millions of videos are watched every month on mobile devices. (stats complied by website-monitoring.com)

When you look at stats like these you have to stop and move the goal posts. If hundreds of millions of people are watching videos on their phones, instead of spending more time and effort and cost creating a kids TV channel, why not move the goal posts and go online? why not create a YouTube channel as an effective way to reach kids TV could never reach? There is so much potential going forward, just as long as we stay in touch with new media and keep up the levels of excellence anything is possible or as one mobile company ad slogs puts it: the future's bright, the future's orange
