Thing #5 PodCasting & Video Sharing

Thing Five:
1) Went to YouTube with much trepidation(is this a word)I had never been there being the good Baptist I am. Neither do I live in a tree...
a. Looked at this video: "Playing for Change" Song Around the World...Stand By Me.
I am telling you it was impressive the way they meshed the song with different
instruments and voices around the world. (Nov. 6,2008)
b. I went to a video called "Wired Santa" 14 sleeps til christmas. I thought this
was so funny! http://wiredsanta.podomatic.com/ Anyway was not succesful trying
to add that to bloglines. Everyone should watch this, funny stuff.
2) I found a couple of book things but nothing as good as our bolgger book club. I did see a Stephen King Book Club. If you were there you might like it. The librarians who think they can sing...not so good. I think we weould need to make something alot more interesting.
a. How about a 5-7 minute...vodcast of a performer coming to the library for a program, that the patron's could see such as...a cooking demo...demo guy or girl is put up on the Library Vodcast and you see a demo of dipping strawberries.
b. What about inhouse programs...such as chess club?...film 5-7minutes of an intense
game and it is sure to attract others to come in. You know what they say a picture is worth a thousand words.
3)The Grand March of the Librarians...Oh boy...Librarians should stick to their day jobs. No singing, dancing or walking around trying to attract attention. Get professionals people. Our job is information.
4)Lynn, please put the Wired Santa up for the intranet or link it. I wanta know what happens to him.

Just wanted you to know that I have changed the selection of videos in thing #5. I am ashamed to say that other than The TS, I had not previewed them. Now a more interesting selection.
I will add the santa to our Intranet so people can see it. Thansk for the recommendation!
