You Tube

The YouTube Post I have to include, by a couple of book loving college grads who are currently living in Jersey:



But using a video I already know about is cheating, isn't it? Even tho it is about books! And twentysomethings who love books enough to create this HSM influenced video.

I love the idea of a virtual library tour, and found these:


Interestingly, searching "library tour" gives mostly university/college videos. Is it that those libraries think this targets their customers better? Why aren't more public libraries doing this?

Like/dislike:

While I love tags & tagging, the limitation is figuring out what the poster used as a tag. For instance, are New Jersey libraries NJ? New Jersey? Or omitting their state altogether? When posting on YouTube.

Love how easy it is to link/embed the video. If we want people to link to us, let's make it easy!

Related videos; aren't always on target, but YouTube does a decent job of trying to guess what is "related" for you. A library? The same user? A different tour? Some aren't on target because it's hard to know what the viewer deems "related." But they at least try to do it.

Flickr, Part 1

My existing Flickr account; which I haven't added to in a while. I've also posted an image from Flickr, so I satisfied this answer in time for tomorrow's deadline. But I may do the extra challenge next week.
