On Wednesday, YouTube revealed that over 20 billion videos have been uploaded to the platform over the course of 20 years! The domain officially launched on Valentine's Day in 2005. The very first video, featuring co-founder Jawed Karim, is 19 seconds long and shows the San Diego's Zoo elephant exhibit. About 20 million videos are now uploaded every day, and users watch over a billion hours of YouTube content daily. "If you go back 20 years, it would have seemed laughable that this website with kids making parody videos would become a threat to Disney, ABC, and CBS," analyst Ross Benes said. (Tech Explore)
