What happened in 2000?

When did YouTube launch? 

At the patterns in time workshop today we had to construct a timeline from 2000-2006. We were given lots of big events that have happened over those 7 years, like the launch of YouTube and Twitter. I only knew like two or three of the 35 total, but together with the rest of the group, we got about 11 right at the beginning. Once Katie had told us what ones we got wrong we were allowed to go and research the rest on the Internet. It seemed like 2004 was the year that had the most things going on. It was really interesting to see what has happened over all of those years, and to talk about the similarities and differences, and the patterns that occurred.
