The late, great Buddy Holly and Thing #20

I could get lost in YouTube, spending hours looking at video clips! I really enjoyed looking at some old clips, like this one of Buddy Holly on the Ed Sullivan show in 1958. I also learned how to be a ninja and how to waltz and how to clean my bathtub. All kinds of great stuff!

While YouTube is a lot of fun, I'm not sure how libraries would use it. Maybe we could do video clips for patrons explaining basic things about the library, like how to get a card, in foreign languages.

YouTube might also be useful for staff. Learn & Play videos have certainly been a big hit!
