YouTube-overview

YouTube is a video service website. You get to do a lot of things on YouTube. You can watch different videos, upload videos or even delete videos that are embarrassing to you. The problem with an upload of items uploaded on a web server is its propagation to other servers and even to web browsers. If you are able to remove every trace of such items like video, image or post on a website, it becomes more difficult for the content to reside longer on public server. Sometimes you may want to delete an embarrassing YouTube video and when you are not able to remember your username and password details, it could be difficult.  You may appear in an embarrassing video with some people and you want to delete it. If the video was uploaded by someone else it might be difficult, however if you had uploaded the video possibly accidentally while you were trying to upload another one from your computer you should be able to delete it. Here are some tips on how to delete videos on YouTube
