Thing #5 Podcasting and Video sharing

1. Podcasting:

I have previous experience listening to (randomly)and subscribing to podcasts. I find them very useful, convenient, and easy to share. We can use this technology to promote our programs and to "booktalk." Another way to use it would be to involve our patrons.

http://my.podcast.com/mgrozdic/ -- I realy enjoyed the Arlington Heights Library's TS vodcast. I think we should create some featuring our library.


2. YouTuabe

Again, very useful, very popular tool. Taking videos during our programs (assuming OK with kids, parents) and posting them to promote similar future programs, or just staff talking about the program, booktalk, etc.
