Comment on the quality, entertainment value, or usefulness of the content on these sites.

After searching for a while on these two social media sites, I found that the quality of pictures in Flickr and some videos in YouTube were very good: Some photos taken in Hong Kong were so pretty with great details of the images.

Some of the videos in Youtube were quite interesting and entertaining. For example, I was looking for an old song by "Platters" and what I got was a long list of different artists performed the same song in a different way. However, I did find some disgusting and obscene videos in YouTube. I don't quite understand why they are allowed to be uploaded on the web.

I would say it is useful for commercials. I notice that there are larger companies using YouTube to promote their new products, e.g., Wii Fit. More and more people use computers on a daily basis. These social media sites would be a success for promotion because different kinds of audience on the Internet would get the messages.
