YouTube has revolutionalised this generation completely.  It has made common man uncommon. People who have talent can exhibit their talents by simply posting it on YouTube from anywhere in the world. The beauty of YouTube is that a person can post his cooking or travel video in Gambia or Vietnam while millions of people can watch it in India or Nepal.

This is the beauty of this platform and can imagine its reach. I am amazed at the discovery of this platform. I know many students in India have managed to qualify competitive competitions like NEET or IIT-JEE only by watching teachers videos on YouTube. Even I remember many of my friends in Dubai when they had come here they did not how to cook but today they all have become specialist in cooking. Hats off to YouTube channels. Hundreds of trained and untrained chefs are sharing their experience of cooking.  YouTube has given everyone a platform to showcase their potential.
