Week 9, Thing 20: Discover YouTube

I jumped forward to explore the video hosting site "YouTube". It was fun to locate old TV commercials and TV show clips that I remember from my childhood. It's pretty user friendly and easy to find what you're looking for, but also easy to find what you're not looking for. There are some pretty bizarre things there! I was amazed at how easy it was to paste the video into the blog!

I can think of ways that this would be useful. If a customer is searching for a famous speech, chances are they might find it here! You might be studying a certain era like the 70s. You can watch videos of commercials and TV shows to see how people dressed or how they danced, etc. It's a wonderful resource in this respect!
