I think we all have been to youtube to watch little kittens and weird japanese prank shows. Sometimes I think that is all that is on youtube but the reality is that there are a lot more useful things on there as well. While we may think that youtube is just a bunch of people filming some concert or them doing some crazy karate, we may be missing a serious educational experience on youtube as well.
While I was being rather bored, I heard an incredible piano piece which struck me so hard that I wanted to learn piano just so I could feel "impressive" that I could play that piece. Don't ask me what that piece was, it was on the radio. I googled in "piano tutorial" and noticed that there were youtube results!
You might not think much of finding people trying to teach you piano on youtube to be impressive but its like getting free tutorials online where you would have, without it, gone to the library to pick up a book or look through the yellow pages to look for a tutor. Not only that, you might not even be able to find a tutor or book to help you out where you're located. With youtube, it's everywhere (except maybe china...). It isn't just limited to piano either. You can learn guitar, flute, computing, php, sql, java, basic, photography, and etc. The list is practically endless. You might even be able to find tutorials on bagpipes or some other exotic instrument!
