I first thought about Latest Breaking News but anything I post there gets deleted, I am not worthy evidently.

Then I thought Good Reads because it is about a book ultimately but it is a video so I couldn't put it there. So a video a about a book, that the link wasn't directly a video but had some text below it, didn't think it belonged in the Video & Multimedia forum. Politics? No; Justice & Public Safety? but it's a book; Media? Maybe, I could have put it there or maybe Entertainment or Offbeat. It surely didn't belong in The Lounge.

To make a long story short, I posted in General Discussion because I was so confounded on where it should have gone. It was a last resort, no place else to post it, just wanted to share it with all of DU.

Hope that's OK

I think it's for posting things that ARE v&mm, not just about v&mm.

My problem is that I have a slow & clunky Internet connection & even YouTube stutters on it, so I generally don't watch video clips unless they seem especially interesting or important. Without some text, I have no idea whether or not a given video is worth the agony of trying to view it.
