Podcasts and YouTube

The benefit of podcasts, and vodcasts: A great way of saving something to listen to when and where it is convienient, whether downloaded to an mp3 player or listened to from a pc. Could be handy for libraries to have instructional podcasts that people can download for things like navigating the web page, researching family history, etc.



YouTube is hilarious, tedious, ridiculous, informative, revolting and entertaining. There is some great rare concert footage, old outtakes, short films, etc. However to get to them, one must sort through the most amazing amount of dross. Gems are there to be found however, if you have the patience and the right search terms.
