I searched through You Tube on the subject of libraries and found a wide variety of videos from seminars about"Google Collections for Java " (above my head), to overviews of individual libraries, to comedy skits about libraries. "Mr. Bean in the Library" was my favorite.
I searched for a variety of subjects and viewed a few (pet antics, Obama, and "most viewed"). I also looked up a video that my son created and stared in a few years ago for Bedford Unicycles, Bedford commercial. It was fun to view it again and I was surprised to see that it was still up there. Does You Tube ever take legal videos down or do they stay up there indefinately until the postee withdraws it.
I looked at Hula and Funcast. I would probably not use them very much because I am not interested in many TV series and most of the movies listed were not ones that I would select. I also do not like looking at a computer screen for long periods of time. I use Netflix and the Library's DVD collection which I think gives me better variety. I suppose the two sites could be used as a tool by libraries if patrons want to access any of the movies(some are clasics), series,trailers, etc.

Loved your son's unicycle commercial! I hope that you can always access it. Maybe there's a way to send a copy to an online personal archive.
ReplyDeleteI loved it, too! He's a cutie and looks a lot like his mom! HOWEVER, what happened to the helmet when he started trick cycling??????
ReplyDeleteIt's all in the brand, so they say. Cool tricks. Keep the helmet.
ReplyDeleteCould I see a TV program of choice on my laptop? Is that what Hulu and Funcast do? Presume it is a program already past. How about things from Discovery or History channel?
