Online video services enable distribution of video without the constraints of geographical and ethnics barriers. In fact, online broadcasting shifts the power from mega television networks and authorities to any user of the internet. With this capability anyone can broadcast video over this powerful yet accessible medium. Users of the online video services are able to build their own channel with other users subscribing to it.

Thus, most online video platforms are equipped with community building features such as forum, polls, ratings, and other forms of function that could facilitate interaction between users. Subsequent to the sharing of videos, exchange of thoughts,opinions and values could take place in this community. This paper gathers insights of the current trends of exchange happen in online video community. The categories of videos uploaded are identified and possible reasons for upload are derived. Comments and subscriptions from the community towards the videos are then observed for themes. The iterative exchange happens between the viewers and the video owners or among the viewers themselves provides an insight over the extent of global and constructive interaction that takes place in this community of practice.
