Might be easier to explain what my YouTube channel is NOT. I'm not trying to build an audience. I'm not trying to make money. I'm not really trying to "engage." On that point I should explain why I block most subscribers. In my experience, most just want to use the comments on my videos to spam. (I can't recall the last time I got a benign or useful comment) When I remember check the NO COMMENTS box when posting a video. I park videos here so I can share them on my blog (smays.com). If you are really keen on commenting, that's the place to do it (with moderation).
