I absolutely love YouTube! I could (and have) spend hours just watching video after video. There are heaps of videos on just about every topic under the sun, whether it be sporting highlights (or lowlights), the crazy driving conditions in India and Afghanistan, or just an instructional video on how to do something.
YouTube would very handy in a library setting, whether it be for training purposes, or instructing the public on how to use a new piece of technology, ie. SARA readers, self checkout machines, etc. It could also be used in a publicity capacity, ie. advertising the different collections, events, virtual tour etc. and a link to the video put on the library service's website.
Here's one of the videos I found rather amusing. An old Mr.Bean classic, that's very relevant to the library profession! :)
