Thing #20

I have really be looking forward to this Thing!! I enjoyed looking at the different videos. I actually have YouTube on my iGoogle home page and the video that I chose popped up on there today. I couldn't believe how cute that little rabbit is, so I had to add it to my blog. (Now I may have to get a rabbit for Jasmine...) I did have some difficulty posting it, but I finally figured it out. When I tried to copy the code for "Embeddable Player", I wasn't getting all of it, so it didn't work. But, my persitence paid off and I finally got it to copy. I guess that is what I disliked about it, but at least, I did figure it out. However, whenever you want to watch the video, you must first turn the sound on my playlist off or you have both songs going on at the same time. Not cool......... Anyway, I love YouTube! I can see how it could be applied to the library website. You could have little videos of different books, like "teasers" to get the students to read them. Very cool!!
