What Do Thomas Edison and YouTube Have in Common?
Wednesday November 12, 2008
A Menlo Park - YouTube - the online video sharing and viewing community - was invented by Steve Chen, Chad Hurley and Jawed Karim out of a garage in Menlo Park, California. Thomas Edison invented many of his best inventions in Menlo Park (however, not in the same garage, Thomas had a factory in Menlo Park, New Jersey). Thomas Edison was even nicknamed the Wizard of Menlo Park. And now guess what the connection is between Janet Jackson's breast and the invention of YouTube. Photo: Screenshot of YouTube website

I think you are mistaken. Thomas Edison worked out of Menlo Park, New Jersey. The three YouTube guys are from Menlo Park, California. They are two different cities.
What do Janet Jackson’s breasts and YouTube have in common? They’re both visually stimulating for a while, but ultimately they’re reduced to an uninspiring pile of silicon(e).
What’s that about janets breasts?!? EW!
Ok guys - if you had read the article the founder of youtube was searching on the internet for a clip of the incident and could not find one - not being able to find such a clip inspired him to create the website youtube
