THE AFFECTS OF YOUTUBE Well it depends, if you are a binge watcher, then not really, especially if you are watching it up close on a small phone. Dimming the brightness on the screen helps, but doctors suggest that you not watch up close, it can cause all sorts of eye problems. As a modern day teenager, I love watching Youtube, whether it’s vlogs, pranks, or music videos. Youtube is addictive, it distracts you from homework or any type of work. Even
You may ask, who created Youtube? It was a group of three guys named
though it's very distracting and bad for your eyes, it's still fun.
Chad Hurley, Steve Chen, and Jawed Karim on February 14th, 2005. When they first created Youtube
Youtube can be helpful though, it has all sorts of math, building, or just work in general tutorials, plus
they were all early employees of Paypal. The first video released on Youtube was. called “Me at the Zoo” by Jawed Karim.
Youtube is fun. WIthout binge watching, there would be no harm to watching Youtube. Youtube is not just straight up bad for you, it's only bad if your are up close, and watching for hours a day.
Youtube is a well known app, kids all around the world use youtube, but the real question, is Youtube good for you? . 4
SNAPCHAT Everyone loves Snapchat, I mean who would not, it is a fun way for you to talk to people or to send the best picture and videos, well who created Snapchat, and when? Snapchat was created by Evan Spiegel, Bobby Murphy, and Reggie brown, all former Stanford students, in September 2011. When snapchat was originally created is was called Snapchat Inc. Why is Snapchat blowing up now though. A couple things that makes Snapchat so likeable, is all the fun filters and the streaks, streaks are fun to keep and they boost up your snapscore and filters are the best especially since they make your face look all funny. Snapchat and fun, and that's that.

PANDORA Pandora, one of the best ways to stream the best music and browse other apps at the same time. WIth Pandora you can not only listen to the best music, but you can also go through the Instagram feed, or send out your streaks on Snapchat. You can listen to several different stations, whether it's rap, hip-hop, or classical jazz. Pandora in my opinion is the best way to stream your favorite songs, I mean come on. Pandora has over 1 million songs, now that is a lot! Not only that, but Pandora has almost every type of music there is, and there is no harm in listening to music because it can not hurt you, just make sure not to listen to it too loud!.

INSTAGRAM Instagram is cool. you can share funny memes, and stalk your family. Nah, i’m kidding, but it’s a fun way to express yourself. And you can keep in touch with your old friends, and family. Instagram was created by Kevin Systrom and Mike Krieger. It was launched in October , 2010 as a free mobile app exclusively for the iOS operating system. More than 40 billion photos have been shared in the instagram history. Instagram was sold for 1 billion dollars in 2012..
IS SOCIAL MEDIA BAD OR GOOD?
Is social media good or bad? That is one of the most common questions there is. Well I have the answer, social media is not bad for you, unless you make it bad. Like binge watching Youtube really close to your eyes s not good for you, or blasting your music on full volume. Other than that there is really nothing to worry about. Some people say there is more, but these are the main reasons it's bad.
Although it is not the best at times, I would say social media is good. You can stay in touch with old friends or watch the latest shows, so it all depends on the amount of time you spend on social media and how close it is to your eyes. You should keep your phone brightness down and hold your device at least 2 inches away from your face, and then you're all set! 9
Where can you find the best recipes and learn how to make your own personal items? Pinterest. On Pinterest you can learn how to cook the best meals, learn how to make the coolest writhes, or even get help on an upcoming science project! Pinterest was created March 2010 by Ben Silbermann and now has over 175 million users. When people think of Pinterest they may think of a old app where your mom learns how to cook, but there are actually hundreds of kids using Pinterest to get help on homework, hair tutorials, or even cooking tips. Pinterest is very helpful, for everyone, even the youngest kids!

NETFLIX
Netflix was created by Reed Hastings and Marc Randolph on August 29th, 1997 in Scotts Valley California. The first Netflix original series was the House of Cards. Netflix is great for binge watching your favorite shows on a nice Saturday. There are over 6,494 movies and 1,609 shows on Netflix. If you watched Netflix for three hours a day it would take you 31 years to watch every movie on netflix, or almost 4 years to watch everything if you watch 24/7! Netflix is amazing, I mean as soon as a show comes out on TV it comes out on Netflix only a hour or two later.
