Well, this is it, we've reached the end. I'm glad we ended with this assignment. It was a lot of fun albiet time consuming as I was often drawn in by related videos and videos that looked like fun. I could see YouTube being a very useful tool for training and instructional purposes in a University setting.
Below are a few YouTube videos that I recommend watching. The first one, entitled "25 Things I Hate About Facebook" is a play on the "25 Random Facts About Me" that most FB users have been tagged with at one time or another. I thought that it would be a good one to end our RULA assignment with.

The video below is of a more serious nature. It's a lecture that was given by Dr. Randy Pausch, a professor at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh, PA who was dying of pancreatic cancer and wanted to give his young children something to remember him by. Just a warning that it is a real tear jerker, but at the same time very inspiring.

And finally...the story of Christian the pet lion - and his eventual release into the wild and his reunion with his former owners - it is as moving as it is incredible.
