As much as I criticize the internet and its addictive nature, I have to admit that we’re kind of blessed to have it: There’s nothing you can’t learn about in this baffling yet miraculous landscape, and you can do it largely for free. With its in-depth longform content and caliber of creators, YouTube is the social media site best suited for self education. Today, I'm chatting about how to harness the platform's powers, identifying some issues with it, and showing you how to navigate a YouTube-based college course. No student loans necessary!
