Youtube has started jacking viewers. bad vibes.... used to be you could

listen to a person's play list while doing other things. now youtube has started blocking playlists after 4 or 5 videos by throwing up a nag screen that forces you to click on it to get the vids to play again. one suspects they gonna start charging soon IMO

time to move along to vimeo perhaps

I find myself watching more YouTube than anything else. There's a free APP that let's you convert the music videos to mp3 that are added to your Itunes library. Check it out at dvdvideosoft.com if you're not familiar with it.

It's only been a couple of years that I latched onto YouTube, and it soon became my University of YouTube - been going nuts over Greco-Roman history and *tons* of spot topic/how-to. I've said this and mean it totally that I have learned more from YouTube than I did from schooling in general and grad school in particular.

"time to move along to vimeo" - what's that, will be finding out.
