There are thousands of great videos on YouTube, but one of my favorite YouTubers is Dan Brown. Dan is a 22 year-old who launched a YouTube show called "Dan 3.0" in August of 2010. The idea behind Dan 3.0 was that his audience would run his life. He ran a blog and his viewers could go post "tasks" for him to complete. Once the tasks were posted, people could vote on their favorite tasks. The show led him to travel to San Fransisco with his girlfriend, become a vegetarian for a week, but most of all, the show broke him down. He couldn't handle the work and his expectations were defferent than the result. He discontinued Dan 3.0 in April 2011. He started a new show called "Delicious Steak" in which he talks about current events and issues. His commentary really gets my mind running about issues. He is a firm believer that the internet is one of man's greatest inventions and that is one view of his I have adopted. Delicious Steak has stopped and Dan vlogs for his own pleasure. Nonetheless, his videos are stimulating and foster discussion.

Check him out!
