Announcing the Library Information Literacy Online Network or LION TV

The ANimated Tutorial Sharing Project (ANTS) Team would like to announce the introduction of their new site: the Library Information Literacy Online Network or LION TV (http://liontv.blip.tv).

LION TV is an educational network where information literacy broadcasts are directed at teachers, professors, students or members of the general public. It will not replace the ANTS worksites used by professional librarians, but rather will serve to enhance the work of the ANTS members by providing them with (1) an online network with video sharing capabilities and a better screen resolution than YouTube, and (2) a means of pushing the broadcasts created for ANTS out to popular brand sites where people spend time online. These sites include Facebook, Blinkx, iTunes, Flickr, AOL Video, Yahoo Video, MySpace, MeFeedia, Meebo, MeeVee, Lyco Mix, del.ic.ious and Internet Archive. Even though the broadcasts are not on YouTube, they are ubiquitous.

For more information about LION TV’s Push, Sharing, Syndication, Subscription and Embedding features, visit the official announcement of LION TV at the ANTS Wiki. It is at: http://ants.wetpaint.com/page/ANTS+and+LION+TV
