#20 Youtube

I love Youtube. It can be educational, interesting or just funny (like this video). The footage here shows a beauty pageant entrant demonstrating her questionable dancing and trumpet skills.

Youtube can be used in all sorts of ways on a library website such as online training; showing building developments; auspicious moments such as an opening; author talks or even something library related that is fun and friviolous.

I've come across some great rare footage such as old blues musicians that have thought to have never been captured on film; where someone has found some old film taken by there father or grandfather and posted it on Youtube to share with everyone. I love the sharing, community spirit of sites like Youtube.
