To Phil, From Bangladesh
YouTube's community is its biggest strength. I want to talk about important issues such global poverty and the hardships they face (like the recent disaster caused by Cyclone Sidr) in a way that uses the power of YouTube and its community. This is my submission to sxephil's "How to Get a Popular Show/Series/Vlog" contest. I am thankful for all my subscribes (all 12 of them) and those who already watch my videos. I'm not trying to become a YouTube celebrity - but I am hoping to get more people interested in the issues and inspired by potential solutions to some of the world's biggest problems. If you have questions about what my plans are "when I get back" or why I would like to have more views please read my blog post here: http://uncultured.com/2007/12/04/sxephil-contest/ I've also answered some of those questions in the comments attached to this video. If you haven't heard of Cyclone Sidr or what its impact has been, check out: http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/south_asia/7102833.stm and http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/south_asia/7107176.stm I have tagged along with a Canadian NGO trying to provide clean water for the survivors of Cyclone Sidr. I bought some blankets (70) to give out to try and do my part to help.
