If you haven't checked out YouTube yet, you really should, if just to get an idea of where the Internet is probably headed in terms of the way content will be served up to consumers. If you really have time on your hands, you should try making a video and post it to the site, like what I did recently.
I produced a little video about the water garden I made on my balcony. It took me a total of about half a day to get the video out. I did the filming on a Canon Power Shot A70 digital camera and edited the video footage with Windows Movie Maker, a piece of video editing software that you can get free from Microsoft.
Had a lot of fun making this piece. Hopefully, I'll have time to make some more!
