YouTube takes-off in the birthplace of Azonto!

Posted on 12:45 by Unknown
En Français

When azonto was first performed by dance groups in Ghana, no one would have guessed how far it would go. Today, the fact that the world is intrigued by azonto confirms that Ghana has much to share with the world.



Today, we are delighted to announce the launch of www.youtube.com.gh, a version of YouTube that will give Ghanaians an easy way to discover local content and content producers. From today, when Ghanaian users visit the Ghana domain, they will instantly see the most popular videos in Ghana, as well as videos that are most relevant to them.

We have partnered with local content producers and broadcasters like the Multimedia Group and Pidgen Music to bring a more diverse mix of Ghanaian content to YouTube, and we’re looking forward to seeing more Ghanaian videos online.

Is your internet connection speed making you wait a long time to watch videos? Don’t worry, we have a solution! Try the lighter low-bandwidth version of YouTube called YouTube Feather at www.youtube.com/testtube. With this, you will still have a good video experience.

If you’re not one of the millions already taking over dance floors with your azonto moves, here is a video that will show you how.

And, once you’re done, you can also start sharing your life, work or voice on www.youtube.com.gh. Who knows, you just might create the next international movement!

YouTube fait son entrée là où l'Azonto est né !

Quand les premiers groupes de danse d'azonto ont commencé au Ghana, qui aurait pu se douter de l'ampleur qu'allait prendre ce phénomène ? Aujourd'hui, l'azonto intrigue le monde entier, preuve que le Ghana a beaucoup à partager avec le reste du monde.

Nous sommes heureux d'annoncer aujourd'hui le lancement de www.youtube.com.gh, une version de YouTube qui donnera aux Ghanéens un moyen facile de découvrir des contenus et des producteurs de contenus locaux. Désormais, lorsqu'un internaute ghanéen consultera le domaine du Ghana, il accèdera instantanément aux vidéos les plus populaires du Ghana, et aussi aux vidéos les plus pertinentes pour lui.

Nous nous sommes associés avec des producteurs et chaînes de diffusion locaux tels que Multimedia Group et Pidgen Music pour apporter un mix plus varié de contenu ghanéen sur YouTube et nous sommes impatients de voir arriver de nouvelles vidéos ghanéennes en ligne.

Votre débit Internet est insuffisant pour accéder rapidement aux vidéos ? Pas de panique, nous avons une solution ! Essayez la version allégée de YouTube appelée YouTube Feather sur www.youtube.com/testtube spécialement conçue pour les bas débits. Elle vous permettra de regarder convenablement les vidéos.

Si vous ne faites pas encore partie des millions d'amateurs qui s'entraînent sur les pistes de danse aux mouvements de l'azonto, voici une vidéo qui vous montrera comment faire.

Ensuite, libre à vous de commencer à partager votre vie, votre travail ou votre voix sur www.youtube.com.gh. Et qui sait, vous allez peut-être créer le prochain mouvement de danse à succès international !
