Was Apoll mit YouTube zu tun hat

Rob Bricken fragte am 8. Jänner in io9: "Can we bring the Greek Gods back, please?". Und er führt einige überzeugende Argumente dafür an. Zitat:

"They're easily adaptable to modern life. Most major religions haven't had a serious update for at least a millennium or so. As such, it can be hard to truly integrate these religions into modern times. But thanks to their diversity, the Greek gods would snap right into place. Hermes is obviously the god of cellphones, emails and text messages. As a craftsman, Hephaestus would probably handle all computers and network issues, while Demeter would watch over restaurants. Apollo, the god of YouTube videos. You can't tell me that life wouldn't be at least a little bit easier if we had a god specifically handling YouTube videos".
