Twelve years ago (on April 23, 2005), a dude uploaded a video to a new website showing how big the trunks of the San Diego Zoo’s elephants were. The world changed that day. Well, not because of the elephants or the dude, but because of the video per se. From then on, video content become available for everyone, everywhere.

The breakthrough part was that everyone could upload, not just the media. Cut to now, where 300 hours of video are uploaded to that site every minute. MINUTE. Like, right now a kid in Japan and a mom in Brazil are watching the same fail video filmed in an American home. Wow, right? YouTube became such a big part of our lives.

Who would want to live life without youtube now? That’s exactly why this week we bring you SnapTube: an app that lets you save YouTube videos on your phone. Oh snap!
