I2padams
I2padams (written as i-2, not the number 12) was one of the first YouTube channels created by Philip Adams on April 9, 2009. According to "The Complete History Of OSFirstTimer", Philip's first channel was named "12padams", where he uploaded videos of timelapses, but quickly deleted the channel after it failed to gain traction.[1] He would then create the "I2padams" channel initially about a year later in order to embed a trailer for his time travel hacking game Histacom onto its website. He initially wanted to reuse the "12padams" name, but could not do so as YouTube did not allow users to reuse old channel names at that time, even if the previous channel had been deleted.[2]
Later, he would use the channel to upload a series called "Up To Date", in which Philip would demonstrate the changes made between older and newer versions of the Windows operating system, such as the differences between Windows 3.11 and Windows 95. After completing the Up To Date series, he published a series of gameplay videos about Histacom, which was a let's play-style video showing how to navigate through the game, what features the game has and how you should correctly complete it.
After his Histacom gameplay videos, Philip would then use the channel to publish various videos which recreated his experiences with lucid dreaming, which was one of Philip's biggest interests during this time period. In between episodes of the "12padams Phase Experiences" series, he would upload various other random videos, such as the videos that would introduce his younger sister Jasmine Adams for the first time, such as the videos in which Jasmine plays Minecraft and where she eats a "yucky lunch"; and a video that demonstrates an old remote desktop program for iPads of the era called Splashtop.
Philip would then decide to stop posting videos to the I2padams channel in August 2012, as he decided that the channel had became very messy in nature, with videos that didn't relate to one another. The channel, and all of its videos, however, are still available on YouTube today. Philip would then begin the OSFirstTimer YouTube channel later that year in November.
