Do you HULU?

I don't, I prefer to watch TV shows on a big screen in HD if I have time or inclination to watch it.
I do see the benfits of HULU as you can see an episode you missed or a library patron not having to wait for Season 1 Disc 4 with 10 holds.
Free TV is great and if watching TV on your monitor works for you, go for it.
I don't watch too much TV on TV and will probably never see a TV show on my 15 inch monitor.

Library Thing

I created my account and tagged a few books. Having Library Thing enhancing our OPAC is great for Reador's Advisory as well.

Youtube

I use youtube to watch events I miss out on as I stay thousand miles away from my family. Though I was unable to attend an event due to the distance, I can still see and hear my family or friends.
Libraries can use it to showcase past events, provide a virtual tour, publicize new additions or new services.

Music Streaming

I use different websites to download latest Hindi songs. I love it as I can have that only song in the album I want and not have to buy the album. I can burn my own CD's based on a theme. Its quick and easy.
