The internet can be a really entertaining resource. There are so many sites now with free funny videos on them, catering for almost any taste out there. So if you are looking for something to laugh to, the web is the perfect place to start your search.

Some of these films can be downloaded, or you can choose to watch them streaming, but it may also depend on the website. By doing a search in a popular search engine, or in one of the video hosting sites, you will find things to make you laugh. To find random free funny videos, search a simple phrase like funny videoclips, or you can be specific if you have an idea what you want to watch.

Podcasts are a new and interesting form of entertainment made specifically for the web. They are usually short clips, sometimes structured like a show and many of them will make you laugh. Some of these have even become regular TV shows. There are podcasts on a number of subjects, not just comedy, you can even get university lectures. The ones that are very popular often are those made by celebrities or starring celebrities.

Over the past few years it has become a regular thing to find stars posting free funny videos on the web. While some are candid, and not all celebrity videos are meant to be seen, there has been an upsurge in digital shorts created by well known comedians, actors and singers. Of course some of those candid moments can also be funny, though maybe not for the celebrity, when they are caught in awkward situations.

Many famous comedians, and even more who are not famous yet, have uploaded stand-up comedy routines. There are also sites dedicated specifically to stand-up. The internet has helped a number of comedians get more famous as their routines became known long before they visited a city thanks to viral marketing.

On the numerous sites that host video, there is an abundance of weird and bizarre free funny videos. People film themselves singing and dancing, or their pets doing it, or babies, while you can also find tirades, accidental nudity, people slipping and falling and other embarrassing moments.

Today is a time that almost every person has some sort of recording device in their pocket, with most cell phones having cameras built in. This has opened up an entirely new medium of entertainment, and the internet has become the home for these self-made movies. Home-videos are now uploaded from across the world, and shared with everyone.

If you enjoy funny songs you will also find many real good impersonators, and song spoofs. Some of these singers and songwriters have become so popular from posting funny videos they are now having quite good careers. The same can be said for some of the filmmakers who have made some of the funny music videos you can find online.

Since the start of the internet of the most popular types of entertainment were the cheap animations, and that is still the case. There are a number of cartoons that are solely internet-based, and have now reached cult status. Almost like a daily comic strip, new shorts are released regularly. A few of these cartoons have been picked up TV broadcasters as well, and even turned into video games.
