Kudos to Westtown School's recent launch of www.westtownschool.tv. They've built an on-line video environment designed to host and categorize school videos for their audiences. Westtown currently offers 13 channels or topics in their library covering everything from current events and happenings to admission material. Users can create libraries and favorites lists for future visits and user groups and friends can share videos. Think Youtube for the Westtown community.
Anyone can upload; but of course, Westtown reserves the right to not accept video.
Video channels provide a great opportunity to build and foster a community of users interested and dedicated to a school. Everyone from parents, to students, to alumni can stay current with school happenings and witness firsthand the students' creative talents.

Such an interesting idea- thanks for blogging about it. I wonder how many of their alums will contribute to the site.
