I totally agree that there is both trash and treasure on video sharing sites. I do think that using video enhances communication. We all are familiar with learning styles. The more varied the approach in communication the greater the impact.
The point of blogs, newletters and websites is to communicate with an audience. Libraries use these methods to communicate with their clients about programs, policies, events both special and ongoing. The more varied the presentation, the more dynamic it comes across the greater the impact and the retention.
I loved adding the skin. It really made it fun. I selected the Toy Story Trailer because it seemed to fit perfectly into the View Master skin I located. Frankly, video is fun and skins add to the entertainment. I really enjoyed this lesson!
