Google continues its 'The Web Is What You Make Of It' campaign with its latest spot featuring Jamal Edwards, the 20-year-old entrepreneur behind youth broadcasting website SBTV.

 

The series of ads set out to highlight people using the web in inspirational ways and have so far included Lady Gaga and the 'It gets better' campaign.

Jamal Edwards posted his first self-made video of his friends rapping on the internet four years ago and went on to launch and run SBTV.

On YouTube, the ad received over 750,000 views in just six days.
