Youtube

There are an amazing variety of video clips out there, and I had to ponder for a while to think of what to search to find one. Problem is, our connection is so slow that it took ages for it to load; I got two seconds worth of play for every 5 minutes waiting. This was just to view the video to see if it was what I actuallly wanted!
It seems that I have to sign up for Youtube in order to post a video clip to my blog. Have just spent ten minutes trying to sign up. Grrrrrr... Anyway, I am attempting to embed the video clip on libraries I found into this blog. It does take a while to load, though. What do library staff do over the summer/quiet season? This may provide the answer to this question.

This type of technology could be used on a website to explain a procedure, give a tutorial, give a tour of a collection, or reveal part of the library usually unseen, in a similar way that this clip does. Web download speeds will have to be a lot faster, though. I found the whole experience very frustrating.



Hey neat! Look at what I just found:

For all those Gerry Anderson fans out there, here's a poser: In the opening credit shots following the countdown, how many scenes from various episodes can you identify? e.g. one of them is "Attack of the alligators". Can you name the others?
