Just because we're young, doesn't mean we're weak.

Our generation has long been called the "strawberry generation" - meaning we're weak, have little perseverance and need other to cater to our every need. Now is the time for us to stand up, show them we're better than that. We'll embrace the name they've given us and make it something for all of us to be proud of.
Youtube – it’s everywhere these days. You’ve watched the cat playing the piano on it. A friend might have posted a video of their holiday on it. Everyone knows what Youtube is. But did you know that there are Youtube celebrities too?
These Youtube celebrities are just like you and I, except they post videos on Youtube regularly. Their videos are generally viewed hundreds of thousands of times per video, a feat only managed by the top few hundred ranked users of the video-sharing site.
Most of the Youtube celebrities are also partners of Youtube, which means that they gain ad revenue for every view they get on their uploaded videos. Some of the top Youtube users even make a living uploading videos. Here are some of the most entertaining “Youtubers” you should be watching and supporting. communitychannel
24 year old Natalie Tran from Australia is the face behind communitychannel. Her videos are mostly monologues of her satirical views on life. You will find that most of the topics she talks about hit close to home, such as creating an embarrassing email address when you were younger (you know you are guilty of it). She also “gives advice” on various aspects of life, such as how much one should spend on gifts for friends and even on how to fight (don’t worry, she’s not very good at it).
Her ability to hit the nail on the head every time has gotten her more than 300 million views collectively, making her the 58th most viewed user on the website ever.
CTFxC stands for Charles Trippy Friend Core and is the channel where 26 year old Charles Trippy and his 21 year old fiancé Alli Speed post daily vlogs (or video logs). Not missing a day for the past 600 days, you will get a chance to have a look at how the couple has fun on a day-to-day basis.
As with anybody on the planet, they have their occasional boring days. However, most of their days are spent having fun doing anything imaginable. Alli even documented a few months of her life in Valencia while she was there for an exchange program. It is also there in the city of Spain that Charles proposed to her and got it on video for the world to see. Their proposal video now has 2 million views on Youtube.
With their willingness to share their life with the internet, it is little wonder why they have gotten more than 118 million views on Youtube.
If you are too lazy to keep track on the crazy goings-on of the world, then this might be the channel for you. 24 year old Philip Defranco picks the most interesting stories from world and entertainment news and summarizes them into short videos. He gives a rapid fire commentary on all the news he covers, often leading to humorous yet insightful discussions on most current events.
While you should not expect this to be your one and only news source, he covers enough ground such that you will know of the most major events happening around the globe. Now you can’t say that news is boring!
His particular brand of news coverage has proven extremely popular, gaining him 441 million views collectively which makes him the 27th most viewed user on the website ever.
