YouTube Awards

YouTube created its first awards voted for by fans for one week. Winners include OK Go for most creative video and Ask a Ninja for best series, which beat out the well-known Lonelygirl15. YouTube is making celebrities out of these ordinary people who put videos on their site. OK Go's video was played on television stations such as MTV and VH1, but through YouTube the video was seen by tons more people and was accredited with the best video award when on television they owe their fame to their music. I think it is extremely interesting and exciting that the internet is creating stars through the choice of the popular public.
