07 Aug 07 Philippines Police Use YouTube to Inform Public

These days I get asked a lot by organisations on how they should go about doing their public facing videocasts and podcasts. I often ask them not to bother with buying/renting their own servers and use free video upload sites like You Tube. If you are targeting young people then your audience are anyway going to be on YouTube. If you put the videos on your site, you need to then figure out ways of driving people to your domain. Put the videos on YouTube, allow others to embed the videos on their blogs and make them fun. Here you have the police in Makati putting up these videos informing the public of the modus operandi of the criminals. The actors are police officers themselves.
