Youtube Comments: Necessary, But Add No Value
In: geek
26 Jan 2009Youtube comments have a bad reputation. It is a well deserved rep, that cause many to ignore or even install custom software to avoid. It’s a playground for trolls, racists, and people who are mean spirited and want to get a rise out of content providers. In the midst of the [...]
