Thing 4 You tube

This is a great way to share videos. I learned that you tube was started in 2005 and 70 million videos were viewed daily. The mega giant, google, owns it.

Last year my speech teacher wanted to use some academy award acceptance speeches in her classroom. We played around uploading the speeches into zamzar so that they could be viewed in our school district. It worked great and the kids enjoyed it.

I can see how it could be used by kids that want to use videos that they make as a project. The kids watch you tube every day and are very familiar with how to use it. They would love to use this application with various projects.
