Currently, YouTube is testing out 3D videos on the site by offering a range of viewing options for different 3D systems. Guess if this ever catches on, we’ll be looking at a new range of casual camcorders as well as video recorders that are YouTube 3D Ready without having to go through a computer to turn the video you just shot into a 3D version.

YouTube: is a video-sharing website where users can upload videos. It is currently (7/2012) the largest such site, and was founded in 2005 by Chad Hurley, Steve Chen, and Jawed Karim, who all worked at PayPal before. While it mainly featured movies from regular folks (and some illegal user uploads) at the beginning, but eventually YouTube grabbed enough market share to attract higher quality content over the years. Now, there is something for everyone, and YouTube continues to push for high-quality content, while keeping the support from amateur video-makers. The company was acquired by Google in 2006 for $1.6B.
