YouTube is a popular online video community that allows users to sign up for a personal account and then upload any kind of video. Users can search for videos on YouTube to find instructional videos, reviews, humorous videos and more. If you have a friend who uploads videos on their account, then you can become YouTube friends with them. Users can also subscribe to any user channel so that they can be notified every time the account is updated. Searching for and finding your friends on YouTube is a simple process.
