LUTube at University of Leeds

LUTube is a new project to enable staff and students at the University of Leeds to show and share video securely online. They can just use their ISS username to log in and upload videos with a couple of clicks. Videos can be uploaded from various formats and converted to Flash format for easy display. There will be customer groups, browsing by schools and faculties, tagging : in short a powerful archived learning device.

What about the library using it? I found a neat little film called "Good advice for using the Library" which was 2.0 in that it was users telling us why they should use the Library! Beats all those films showing students round empty library buildings.
