Discovery Exercise #20 You Too Can YouTube

I enjoyed YouTube. It's very easy to use and the featured videos allows for some quick browsing among the multitude of videos available. I liked the Quicklist feature that lets you quickly get back to videos you liked.
I found a video called "Space Shuttle" that shows a shuttle launch. It's a spectacular video: you can practically feel the heat from the flames as the shuttle lifts off. The shot shifts to a downward-facing camera and you can watch the ground rapidly falling away. This is video at its best; you almost feel like you're there.
A library website might use something like the Community tab which contains discussions, feedback and suggestions.
