Youtube: Bus Uncle

Do you see videos such as "Bus Uncle"+ its copies or Chris Crocker "Leave Britney Alone" + its copies as a good addition to creative culture?

For the original video like "Bus Uncle", "Leave Britney Alone", when people record and upload videos to Youtube, they become a member who take part in constructing the content of Youtube, especially those are their experience and what happened near them which are very original and new to web users around the world and audience. In this case, we can see those videos and people are definitely create their own culture, which to be specified, I think it is a kind of new net culture that is uploading experience and feeling on  Youtube. And there is another kind of culture that they make is they expand the original video by adding new elements like music, character, new story to it.

While people constantly are creating different videos and uploading the videos, there is still concerns on this. For example, people who are recorded in the videos may feel embarrassed and uncomfortable because YouTube or other websites is to the public that  everyone can see and they may be discussed in good and bad comment, and even made any other videos to make jokes on them. Therefore, there will be a great influence of uploading videos to internet. However, this is just an issue of morality. In my opinion, there is nothing good or wrong to do with creative culture. Those creative recordings or copies from the original videos express everyone's creative mind which should not be limited by anything. For the consequence or influence causing from the videos, we may pass the decision of uploading or not the video to internet to government.


Is the wide availability of such videos a good thing for society or not?
Although many such videos include foul language or teasing someone, those videos do keep provide a society special and typical culture which local people easily recognize that and make common topic with colleague. This helps a group of people in a society make a spirit of union. On the other hand, nowadays many web users make videos with politic and social issues that attract people's attention. This can be a new and accessible way for more awareness of public to know more about politic and social issues . To this extent, I think those videos are good things for society.
