Could the IRS’ YouTube Videos be the Start of Something Big?

In the past few weeks, the Internal Revenue Service has started posting a their videos on YouTube. While the videos themselves aren’t new (in fact most are a couple of months old), the potential here is big for this agency that many Americans love to hate.

The short videos focus on everything from charitable contributions to tax scams.

Could Americans be able get help filing their 2009 1040s from an official government YouTube video? Tax season is a headache, and a series of comprehensive YouTube videos from the IRS could certainly help alleviate the stress.

The IRS also deserves major props for offering the videos in American Sign Language and Spanish.

See another agency doing something cool with YouTube? Let me know.
