This week we get to play with YouTube. There is a lot of variety on YouTube. I started out by watching some of the library videos. Arlington Heights PL did one on virtual reference, consentrating on IM. Next up was a travel writer giving tour of a library in Kansas. The last library video I watched was a commercial for the Grand Rapids PL. It was pretty easy to find videos on libraries. One could get carried away going from video to video.
I also took a look at some knitting videos. One was for binding off. I forgot how to do it and this short video showed me how. I like that you can find a video on how to do something. But I wonder if one could develop a YouTube addiction?
I probably spent too much time messing around with YouTube. Libraries can use this to promote services, give tours of the library, share a library program, the possiblilities are endless.
I tried to put a video that I found in the Film & Animation - Top Rated (Today) section. It was fun and made me think of summer. However, I couldn't make it work. So I'll try another one, which seemed to work. [Yeah!]

yeah, YouTube addiction. I can see it. too much of a good thing. It really is fun, though, isn't it?
yes, it is fun. there's such a variety to chose from.
Hi Kasey,
Good work looking through YouTube - and I understand the addiction part. I definitely think it can be addicting. But there are some really cool and neat things out there - as well as some that aren't so neat. And, there's no such thing as too much time spent on Project Play, right? IMHO!
Keep up the good work and keep on playing!
Jean
