Thing 7

It was a lot of fun looking at the list of suggested sites on YouTube. Since TV today seems to consist of crime shows and "reality" shows, it was especially nice to watch the Carol Burnett show outtakes. That means anyone wishing to watch variety shows from years past can easily find them on the Internet. It was interesting to see that the laughing baby video has been viewed more than 100 million times! It also becomes quickly apparent there is a lot of school inappropriate content on YouTube. That is why it is filtered for students, but available for teachers in our district. Hopefully, teachers will use it wisely in the classroom. I chose to leave a comment on one of my favorite episodes from the original Star Trek series called By Any Other Name. It contains Scotty's famous line, "It's green."
