@MTTwinsinCA - Hoorah… your admissions-related YouTube story (cc’s first documented case as far as I remember) is so interesting!!

I’m unsurprised, as D has met lots of people who say they’ve stalked her on YouTube, and she’s certainly done the same with others. Heck, even I love to peruse various MT performances and I don’t have a professional interest, so I can imagine that those who do take full advantage of the resource to scout for young talent.




… as long as whatever you post is actually good (and you need to be a fair judge of that)




@halflokum - If I’ve learned nothing else from American Idol, I’ve definitely learned that we parents can be the WORST judge of our kids’ talent. ;-D I sometimes think that open comments on YouTube can provide young performers (AND their parents) with needed unbiased feedback… at least I think that when the comments aren’t TOO brutal.
