A guy at work was watching forward view out of a small plane. Really small and poor quality but.something I had never seen before. Had to ask what it was.

I suppose if it was something historic, it would have been memorable.

I haven't the foggiest recollection of what my first YouTube video would have been.

But I could tell you the most recent!

So I really don't remember that far back.

I remember having YouTube, Project Player, Meez and Photobucket all for Myspace.

Unpopular opinion, Myspace was a much nicer platform and I actually had fun there.

Edit: compared to other social media like Facebook.
I don't want to get dinged for a miscommunication issue which sometimes happens.

The first video I watched on YouTube...

Was one that a friend made. He was one of the first mods for the channel. He helped build it to what it became. I cannot find the damned thing, but he did a tune about doing stuff on YouTube and it went viral so much that it was featured on a few news programs that were doing stories about the 'new website'.

The first video that I posted to YouTube was this...



This was a film that was done in Nashville, and I was involved with it. I played a detective. The director made this trailer for it, but this was right before Youtube took off and he never did post it, which I found confusing. So, I took it upon myself to do so. We had a blast making it. I wish more people had seen it.

...I couldn't possibly remember.
Has to be at least 15 years & I've watched hundreds & hundreds.
Sorry I can't be more help.

It's still a great way to fix things.

The first one I posted was of some photos I'd taken locally of ice melting.
