YouTube is now 20 years old!
It was officially launched back in 2005, and over the past two decades it has completely transformed the way we use the internet.
Today, over 2.5 billion people use YouTube every single month. Every minute, over 500 hours of video are uploaded. From funny cat videos to political debates, from educational content to viral dance trends… YouTube has become one of the most powerful platforms in the world.
But what was the internet like before YouTube? How did it grow so fast? What impact has it had on culture, education, and even the way we learn English? And what might happen next?
In today’s episode of Thinking in English, we’ll explore the history and influence of YouTube over the past 20 years. I’ll talk about life before YouTube, the story behind its creation, how it’s changed the world, and its potential future.
And of course, I’ll share some tips and advice for English learners, because YouTube can be one of the best tools to help you improve your language skills… if you know how to use it properly!
