 Hi guys, welcome back to this YouTube channel. This is Daniel Rosal here bringing you this video tonight from Jerusalem. I wanted to record a video about this YouTube channel actually and what kind of iteration is going to be put out here. Now the subscriber count at the time I'm recording this is 365 so by the standards of YouTube this is a diminishingly diminutively minno minno tiny tiny channel. So it's very small. I don't show that number because I feel like it's kind of puts me under a bit of pressure when I know everyone can see that and they see it's bouncing up and bouncing down a little bit so I just keep that number to myself for the moment but that's the subscriber count. Last night I was cleaning trying to attempting to clean up this channel a bit adding descriptions where they were missing and creating some playlists and something that really struck me as I was doing that is that there is really no coherent theme whatsoever to this YouTube channel. So if people have subscribed and you're kind of expecting there's going to be a focus here just an FOI there is there's going to be no focus and I just want to explain just for once I've mentioned this in a couple of videos what I'm doing here with this YouTube channel. There's a few reasons I decided to finally get going with YouTube and start putting some videos up here on the internet. Reason one was I've been mostly involved professionally up to recently in writing that's like my thing that's what I get paid to do in substantial part by my clients and growing up I was actually quite interested in video I used to play around with Lego cameras with a friend and it's just been something I've really wanted to get back into for a while so that's reason number one. Professionally as a marketer I see video as being really really where it's at or where it's going at least so that's another reason I just kind of feel like it's a very important skillset for content marketers to have to know how to edit video to know a little basics of production. I'm learning these every single day and enjoying that process a lot and the third reason is this is just fun for me to do this I'm just sharing things I know and I discover and I do have a lot of quite different interests which is probably why this channel has been varying so far I'm interested in technology and Linux and cloud computing I'm also interested in backups I live in Israel and I've done some videos showing both my local surroundings and also things I discover how to do in Israel that I think might be helpful for people and I've a boatload of other weird interests there as well so that's kind of reflected in the channel going forward if I get past this kind of learning phase and get more focused I might actually run a proper YouTube channel that's got a niche and whether that's about Israel or tech or marketing that's definitely something I'm sort of shooting towards but this channel for now for the time being is going to be pretty much stream of the YouTube equivalent to stream of consciousness I just whatever I have to say goes up on this YouTube channel and therefore it's really really mixed bag so I just want to put that out there for people who have subscribed and are wondering what is this about what kind of videos are we going to be getting that is the answer there's going to be a lot of it's a it's a mixed bag to say the least so for those who have stuck with the channel so far just wanted to say thank you I really enjoy getting comments from people and people also send me emails which I love because I'm a massive email fan email is like always my favorite form of communication an email address that would reach me is in the about tab so if anyone has any questions or we just like to say hi feel free to drop me an email always sort of makes my day when I'm working to just get an email from someone on the internet and make connections that's what's so cool about YouTube is it can just bring people together across continents and I'm enjoying that aspect of it too thank you guys for watching more videos coming soon
