🗓 On This Day in Inventor History – April 23 🎉 April 23, 2005 – The first YouTube video is uploaded. Today marks a major milestone in invention history: on April 23, 2005, Jawed Karim, one of YouTube’s co-founders, uploaded the platform’s very first video: “Me at the zoo.” What started as a simple clip turned into one of the most powerful invention stories of the 21st century—revolutionizing how we share, learn, and build community online. From its humble beginnings, YouTube became a launchpad for countless inventors, creators, and entrepreneurs. Whether it's pitching a product, demoing a prototype, or building a brand, it’s proof that invention isn't just about the product—it’s about how you share it with the world. Inventor takeaway: Don't underestimate the power of pressing "publish." Your idea deserves a platform.
