I was looking to find a good streaming server for the video of my Philadelphia presentation. YouTube limits uploaded videos to 10 minutes, so that was out. Instead I tried Google Video. While not as social as YouTube, and a step harder to embed video, it works pretty well. See below:

Thoughts on how libraries facilitate conversations. The idea is based on a simple theory: Knowledge is created through conversation; libraries are in the knowledge business; therefore, libraries are in the conversation business. Though libraries serve a vital role as community memory keeper, they often fall short of the ideal. Lankes will explain how by embracing the participatory online technologies from Web 2.0 libraries can advance not just their communities, but their positions within them. You’ll learn how adopting network concepts and software promotes the library’??s most fundamental mission: knowledge creation and dissemination.
