I just watched it again for the umpteenth time and finally figured out that he's probably saying "U2," but it sure comes out sounding like YouTube.

Calling their site Twitter always baffled me - wouldn't people be put off by what you're implying? - or impressed me with their frankness. Why not mindlessblather.com? Doesn't roll of the tongue the same way...
