It depends what type of youtuber you want to be? If you want to be like the Yogscast with games, then you need a recording program, and an editing program. I recommend Fraps for recording, and Camstasi Studio 7/8 (I use 7) for editing.

However if it's for vlogging I have no clue what to do. However, you would still need editing software.
