Want to start a tech based YT Channel. What do you expect from one?

[priyasukumaram]

Sorry guys. Took a lot of time due to exams, competitions, tech fests etc. I finally decided on a name and made a logo. Please give your opinions. The objective is to look elegant, professional, modern, simplistic and trust-able rather than cool. Thanks

Super cool Logo...

Starting a youtube channel FOR making money is not a very good idea. It takes hundreds of subscribers and thousands of views before you can even start seeing pennies if at all and indian traffic is not worth much anyway. If anything, the so called earnings can be considered an extra incentive for whatever your doing. This is unless your video isn't another Charlie bit me or Gangnam style. It takes a LOT of time and effort to become established enough that it is absolutely not worth it if your in it only for the money.

I think a Youtube channel might be stretching the meaning of the word "Technocrat" .. Its more of a Technically adept Manager, A business jargon.

I think a Youtube channel might be stretching the meaning of the word "Technocrat" .. Its more of a Technically adept Manager, A business jargon.

tech·no·crat
n.
1. An adherent or a proponent of technocracy.
2. A technical expert, especially one in a managerial or administrative position.
technocracy

/tekˈnäkrəsē/

Noun

1. The government or control of society or industry by an elite of technical experts.
2. An instance or application of this.

On the lines of, "a person who thinks technology should rule" according to meaning 1. Also technocrat has evolved much especially on the internet. Of course I'm not saying the name is awesome(I was actually not so happy about it, but am kind of satisfied after the logo ) or that the usage of the word is perfect, it is a result of lack of Youtube channel usernames. Any suggestions by anyone regarding the name are welcome as long as the exact youtube channel name exists. For example the current name is TrueTechnocrat on YT. Thanks for your opinion

To be frank, 'True' makes it obnoxious.
Try being funny or add something else which gives an idea about your personality.
For eg 'Trekkie Technocrat' if you like Star Trek or 'Technocrat Unchained' if you liked Django Unchained.
