Since it's all FREE and you're using it - why not help out a little, eh?
Isn't YouTube great? A homeschooler's best friend I say. But...we know that there are certain things about it that are not suitable for our children - for instance, sometimes that dreaded "related videos" thingy will propagate stuff that not only has nothing to do with the subject we are trying to teach but would most certainly not be rated PG in the theaters!
In addition, the comments section REALLY bugs me. I wish everyone would turn comments off - but if there are no controversial comments then there is no buzz, right? And let's face it - companies like Discovery and National Geographic put videos up on YouTube for one reason and one reason only - to get more business.
And that's OK. Hey, no biz no freebies, right? That's why I decided to start History-Tube at Raising Refounders. Homeschoolers need somewhere to watch the educational videos that YouTube has to offer, without the "related videos" and unruly comments. So here it is! We will be adding more relevant videos to our History-Tube player as time permits.
