I was trying to design a new page and I was working at paypal and during that time i met Chad and Jawed and we made a reunion to create the web page. We started to create the webpage by giving ideas and the best idea was posting videos so people could see them, then the idea of music videos and everything people could imagine. 


Steven Chen contributed to our society with the invention of You Tube. He created a webpage where you can see every video that has been posted, such as: music, documentaries, funny stuff  and many other things. 

He helped the people to connect and interact with the video blog or music, etc.
Everyone in the world knows You Tube.
