YouTube

Youtube has turned anyone in to film makers.

It is used to;
  • promote great video clips from new bands like this one from OK GO which helped get them commercial airplay.
  • watch historical / cultural and politcial footage such as the Whitlam "It's time commercial"
  • make short films like Bob the Pen created by Camden Library Service and Camden Creative Studios.

Youtube is a worthwhile tool that can be used not only as a means of expression by teens, but also as a research tool to access archival and current footage (remember the same rules of authority apply).
