It's hard to believe that You Tube has been around for 10 years now. A new Google study shows that we love the 'How To' videos. In fact the study shows that these videos are 70% more popular this year than last year. Not only that but 67% of young people say that they can learn anything from the How To videos.

The top ten 'How To' searches according to YouTube Trends blog are:

1. how to kiss

2. how to tie a tie

3. how to draw

4. how to get a six pack in 3 minutes

5. how to make a starburst bracelet rainbow loom

6. how to make a cake

7. how to curl your hair with a straightener

8. how to make a bow

9. how to make a paper airplane

10. how to dance

I must admit I've learned a few things from those videos too. Including Number 7 on the list on how to curl your hair with a hair straightener. I've also learned about pool care, folding dinner napkins into cool shapes and I'm sure a ton of other things. What have you learned to do from You Tube  videos?

 

Media Post reports that we spend a Ton of hours on these videos:

People are turning toward video to discover how to do many things such as make a chocolate layer cake with whipped cream and strawberries, cut the hair of a Soft Coated Wheaten Terrier, or put air in the tires of a car. In fact, more than 100 million hours of how-to content have been watched in North America so far this year.
