I signed in to YouTube through my gmail account and registered this blog- that made it easy to add a video to my site. In fact, it showed up as a blog post before I even had a chance to write about it! I decided to look for salsa dance instructions. There are dozens. I liked that I could narrow my options to 'couple' instructions. I watched parts of a few videos, and chose this one... The extra comments he's posted cracked me up before I even got to listen to explanations (yes I'm editing this from the reference desk) so I figured the real instruction would be good but humorous at the same time- the way a dance instructor should be, in my opinion!
I found it very easy to use YouTube. I've learned from experience (not having actual television) that it can be addicting since one video will lead you to dozens of related videos. The challenge is figuring out how to use it at the library. So many patrons already know about it, and I don't see any of our MCPL staff jumping into creating a video for the library, but maybe I'm wrong- it's an interesting idea!
I never was able to upload the video while working in Blogger; I went back to YouTube, where I'd registered my blog, and added it from there. So, there it is.
