Web 2.0 Training - Lesson 5: YouTube

Go to Baker's Dozen Lesson 5: YouTube then come back here for your assignment.

Assignment Modification:
Their assignment requires their staff to create a YouTube account. However, I don't think you need to create a YouTube account to prove you know how it works well enough for our purposes -- but you can do it for extra credit! :-)

But please do:
1) Search for and find 3 videos on your topic of interest
(Joe, Did you know there are hundreds of videos on watching trains? Just search for "railfanning" and you get over 15,000 hits - over 200 just in Fullerton!)
2) "Share" each one on your del.icio.us account and tag it.
3) Then "Share" them with one of your co-workers by email - use the "Send Video" option.
4) Please share one with me so I know you've done it.

Have fun! Any comments?

Web 2.0 Training - Lesson 4: del.icio.us and Social Bookmarking

Go to the Bakers Dozen Lesson 4: del.icio.us and Social Bookmarking. There is no modification of the lesson or assignment. Follow the directions on their blog.

In case the video on Social Bookmarking in Plain English is not there, you can use this link and watch it on YouTube instead.

You guys are my favorite lifelong learners... and great sports!
Thanks!
