Thing #20



     I love YouTube.  Chances are, if you come to eat dinner at my place, we will end up watching videos back and forth for about two hours.  That's just the nature of the website.  It is addictive to say the least.  I placed a video in just to make your head spin a little.  It's quite motivational, as well.  If you put your mind to something, you can do it.  This video just points out the patience that must be behind your persistence.  

     YouTube has so many tools for adding videos to a blog.  This one took about 30 seconds.  I hope that gives you an idea of how easy it is to work with YouTube in correlation with your own work.  Give it a try.  It makes you seem tech savvy, also.

     super easy navigation
    
     Navigation is one of the major key factors in sites that include large libraries and databases of information.  Servers must be on their toes for the quickly changing demands for video web hosting and people are making the most use out of it by using blogs and personal sites to share their favorite videos.  There is even a genre known as Vlogging.  You guessed it, video blogging.

     I enjoy how organized the site is, and I also find that it has a diversity that is unparalleled by any other Non-Member site.  There are videos that can also be used for education.  Instructional videos are becoming more and more popular as the demand is just starting to reach a head in the classroom.

     Expect a lot to continue to flow from YouTube.  They will not stop, nor should they.  They are a close reliable resource for your classroom!  Just watch for language.  You never know what might have strong language.  Happy Video Hunting.
