Thing 20: You too can YouTube

What I liked about YouTube is that it gives people a chance to have their 15 minutes of fame. It gives musicians and singers a chance to be heard and possibly be discovered by a record company. What I don't like about YouTube is that anything can be posted. There's videos posted of people fighting and doing all sorts of other things that I won't mention. You get the good, bad and the ugly. Over all I think YouTube is a good thing. Can I see any features or components of the site that might be interesting if they were applied to library websites? Well, patrons could click on a link to see what a storytime program, summer reading program and adult programs are like. I picked this funny and cute video because of the beautiful tiger cubs and the cute monkey. Adorable and smart!

Love the sport and the music!
