#20 Youtube!!

Youtube is a fabulous online video sharing resource. This technology is WAY advanced for this poor old lady. I have only just ventured into the area of digital cameras, and am trying to understand uploading and editing...Oh dear - my head hurts. After spending much time with these exercises and getting quite lost, I had to enlist the help of my 21 year old. It's easy -he said - you do this and then this. Oh, and look at this funny one I found. [Yeah, rite!]

You can find a video on just about anything on youtube.. one of the funny videos I came across was http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_Yu60iOIirQ

Poor fellow, would he still be alive? How does one find out?... but it just shows that there is alot of stupidity in the world.

was a rather lengthy video [49mins] on the libraries of the future. Where they are heading and what can be expected. Interesting, but again - one is stuck in fromt of a computer and can't get comfy like you would lounging on a couch or curled up in bed. I wonder....

It stated that libraries are no longer repositories of hard copy books .. . although historically they were of great value to those who discovered used and expanded their intellectual businesses or pasttimes ... however in the future .. one may not even have to leave their front door but find all this information and a world of knowledge from the pc.
