I'd really like to get a Youtube account, but there's a problem. some... person decided to set things so that you have to have a Google account first. I don't. I'm thinking of getting one, but I don't know. I don't have any use for it, but I really want that Youtube account.

So, I'm asking the Great Troper Hive Mind: is it worth it? I'm not very tech savvy, so I'd probably never use it after I signed up at Youtube, but am I wrong about that? Could Google be more than a means to an end?

Please, share your experiences with Google, if you'd be so kind.

Yes,go for it.

For one Google Docs is just so much easier than using a word processor,then a flash drive all the time.

I also use it in place of Power Point and if I can Excel

For two Gmail is a very efficient email

And that's not counting all the other little things attached.

Hell there's even a skype alternative now called Hangout.

I barely even use youtube anymore,but my Google account is very important,to the point that I can't even get on my computer without it (then again I use a Chromebook)

Yes, submit your will to the Great Google Overlords, they are your Lords and Protectors and are sworn to Do No Evil. They are your Friends, your Brethren, your Mother and Father in One Entity. Google is Good for the sake of All. You must obey. You cannot resist. To resist would be foolish and feeble-minded. Fus roh dah. Toora loora toora loo-rye-aye. Ob-la-di, ob-la-da.

I thought about putting that in there, but I figured it'd be too obvious.

I haven't had much issue with having a google account, but the constant pestering to get a Google Plus page is annoying.

Thanks, guys. I'll probably do it...when I get around to it.

I'm getting really tired of Google/Youtube trying to force me to use my full name on Youtube. Shut up and go away already, I'm sticking with my username.

[up][up]I usually glare at my screen until the message runs away. That pisses me off, too. Thankfully, it happens only about once every three or four months...

Look upon my R.O.U.S., ye mighty, and despair!

What I did was rename my channel by making it into a Google Plus page

Noooooooooooooo! Don't submit to the Google drones! They'll turn you into another one of them, giving the underground resistance an ever harder time!
