Videos - U Tube, etc.

This is a clever library work-out video. It's so easy to be sedentary in the library.

I thought U-Tube a fun and intesting site. I saw videos on Mentos + Diet Coke experiments, the Trans Siberian Orchestra, my nephew's band. I learned how to marshall jets. I played with the search engines somewhat, but also looked at the videos currently in view. Interesting. And several clever LIBRARY videos too. The web site has so many interesting videos - the variety is almost intimidating. And I think it's not a good thing that people can so easily steal copywrite material to post it - material that will only be taken down if & when the copywrite holder discovers the theft.

U-tube could be useful for the library, tho. We could post videos of our events - show patrons how much fun it can be to come to the library. We could post promotionary videos. We could also post reference videos of things, sort of like a FAQ video or most asked reference questions.
Or a clever video of our locations, hours & phone numbers.
