YouTube and Screencasts

Well, thanks to that handy Screencast, embedding the YouTube video was easy! I've put off the Screencast assignement because I'm not coming up with many ideas about how to use it other than as a great way to provide directions- but it might be handy for people who don't know how to sign up for free email services at the library as we do get questions about that still.

I can tell it's time for me to start getting some short video footage of Chelsea and Barney and posting on my blog, and on YouTube. What a great way to share information. Not only could teens create podcasts of booktalks for Teen Topix, but they could create videos that we could post as well. I think Teen Topix would get many more hits and comments if kids could see and hear other kids on the site.

Hi Karen,

Great job embedding the video - as I mentioned in my other comment, I just finished watching and laughing at it. Great choice!

I look forward to seeing videos of Chelsea and Barney - they're the next stars of Cute Overload!

Great idea for Teen Topix - let me know if it works out and the response you get to it!

Keep on playing1
