Expect a sunny start to the day followed by some afternoon showers in the Okanagan. For parts of the Shuswap, watch for afternoon thunderstorms!
Fun Fact of the day: YouTube’s first
Uploaded on April 23, 2005, it’s the video that started it all.
YouTube’s first ever video was uploaded by Jawed Karim, the company’s co-founder. Karim is featured in the 18-second clip entitled ‘Me at the zoo,’ shot by a high school friend at the San Diego Zoo.
Karim doesn’t say much in the video standing in front of the elephants, other than tell us “the cool thing about these guys.”
The coolest thing about the video itself is what followed it. The video has since eclipsed 100 million views, and its platform’s dollar value is in the tens of billions.
