ASSIGNMENT 10: PART 1

Step 1 : fox.com/fod has full episodes, web episodes, video library. Has highest rated videos, most popular videos, featured videos.
nbc.com/video has full episodes, webisodes, all.shows, an NBC video library, NBC direct, and viewing.party. Never miss an episode (Subscription for free.)
abc.go.com/watch has full episodes and shorts, listing of all shows in evening, daytime, as well as specials. Had a link that gave you information about the Oscars.

cbs.com/video provides HD videos, has browse video, watch & chat - gives full episodes. PRIMETIME originals (movies/specials).

video.pbs.org/ provides programs A-Z ; lists most watched videos ; most Emailed ; Gives link for PBS Kids go! at bottom of screen ; Explore featured programsa featured collections. (This was my preference). I love pbs.com

Step 2 : Internet distributors: I chose joost.com and veoh.com. joost.com in simple format ; easy to connect with Facebook ; lists top ten videos ; second pick was scivee.tv/ which is a website geared to scientific and educational aspects. Gives journals/publishers ; societies/Conferences / scientists product/services. Just the sight for helping a patron who is looking for this type of material. I plan to bookmark this site for use in our library.

Step 3 : I recommend NCIS as a good watch if you like action & adventure shows. I like their related links for similar type shows.
I liked commonsensemedia.org. Good for children ; ages 2-4 and 5-8. Has reviews and parent advice on 5-8.

Step 4 : I predict TV as we know it is becoming obsolete. A person can go online and do pretty much everything they want to do, even watch their favorite TV episodes, listen to music. [The Everything TV] by Michael Moyer was article that pretty much explains what is happening in TV land today.
