Lesson 13 - Making friends using the wonder of YouTube videos

Yeah, there isn't really much of a lesson to be learnt here, I'll give you that. It's more an excuse for me to put some funny links on my lovely blog. However, I put it to you that sharing YouTube videos in coursework/exam time is a crucial part of your friends thinking you're hilarious. It doesn't even take that much effort - all you have to do is copy a cheeky link and provide your pals with some entertainment. 

The key to a good YouTube video for sharing is all about length and content. Your chosen video should be no more than a couple of minutes and it needs to make you laugh. No one wants a thought-provoking video, or something that's going to set the world on fire. They just want some mindless funsies.

To set you off, I've posted my top 5 YouTube videos for you to watch, share, watch again, and keep watching until you're blue in the face.

1) YouForgotBlueberries.com - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yqEeP1acj4Y

Watch until the end for goodness sake. It's immense.

2) Jeremy Kyle - How to spell father - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zekd4iNru6M

Don't be too amazed. Just be glad you're not him.

3) Chimpanzee riding on a segway - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NPGUIpv-JxI

Yes, it's very odd. I defy you to not get this little ditty stuck in your head ALL day.

4) William and Kate - alternative "proposal" interview - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HiXQHBeC2dI

Because Royal Wedding banter is still funny.

And finally, because no YouTube list for the modern generation is complete without it...

5) Rebecca Black - Friday - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CD2LRROpph0

There's a reason why this badboy has millions and millions of views.
