Hey I have a question about youtube. I really want to upload videos and stuff but Im kind of scared... everyone says that you should be so careful not to show what you look like and everything (btw im a girl so thats why we have to be careful) but on the other hand hundreds of teen girls have videos of themselves on youtube.. so basically, do you think it would be safe or not? like I wouldnt say where i live or anything but... ??

It doesn't happen extremely often but it can happen. I've uploaded a lot of videos on various places as well as tons of videos on my own personal site (they were taken down a while ago because I went over my disk space quota)and I've had no real problems other than the DivX website supposedly using one of my videos on their site to demonstrate what divx codec can do. Wasn't so bad though since it was a video I had added special effects to so it looked kool. :]
People wouldn't really be able to know where you're from unless you advertise it in your video or anyting like that. Other than that I think it should be safe. If you want to upload something you only want select people to see I think you are able to make the videos private or set so only your friends can view them.

I have one too, i have a couple of video`s on there of my friends & i, and i`ve had it for a while and nothin has every happend. just depends on who you approve to be your friend on there and who you allow to look at your youtube profile and video`s. but its still up to you.
