im trying to prepare a lesson for tomorrow for school and am looking for a short video of effects caused by hurricane katrina.

Everytime i try to use one from bbc it gets caught in buffering. Anyone have suggestions please!

if you have a vid lined up i can toss it up on my server and since it is lower traffic you shouldnt as much of an issue with buffering

There must be a ton of footage on Youtube. Have you checked there? They have video on everything under the sun. Good luck!!

Yeah youtube should have what you are looking for.

You can also download youtube videos using a site such as http://javimoya.com/blog/youtube_en.php# . Although you will need a special player in order to play the videos. Most things like windows media player or winamp probably wont play them. I use something called flvplayer

Hope your presentation goes well

I always find what I need in Youtube.

It contributed footage to those terrible Chevy commercials with John Mellencamp, they aired so many times that I almost throw my remote through my tv.
