I've been using Flickr for a while. I have a lot of out of town friends that use Flickr as a way to share pictures. It really is a great way to share...assuming those with whom you want to share will also be online. It's nice to not have to deal with large email attachments/downloads. Flickr offers easy ways to organize and manage pictures. I did a little searching around and found other pictures of performing groups of interest, etc... I did upload a photo. I have not yet utilized Flickr for sharing my own pictures. I am frequently reluctant to share personal photos online. However, it is possible to keep your pictures on Flickr private. I think the library could use Flickr for sharing pictures of some of the great programs offered. Also featuring photos of our great space/building might attract some community members that have never visited the library.
When using youtube in the past, I would always just click on a link that was emailed by a friend. There a lot of crazy stuff out there. I even found a clip of a channel 25 broadcast about a friend that recently appeared on Wheel of Fortune. I was excited to find that. When viewing several of the videos, they would skip frequently. I realize this is probably due to file size. I'm sure that this will get better with time...allowing quicker downloads of larger video files. With permission from those participating, it would be neat to video certain programs...the library may even want to create their own video appealing to a certain audience (e.g. TEENS!).
