I became aware of youtube.com through Russ Coff who very effectively used a youtube video in one his presentations at the recent Academy of Management Meetings.
Youtube.com is a bonanza. I quickly found numerous videos with my favorite jazzers, e.g., Django Reinhardt, Tal Farlow, and others, but for you more serious folks, there are great videos of our favorite political economists. For example, here is the great Arnold Schwarzenegger introducing Uncle Milton’s Free to Choose series. And here is Milton himself. Here is one on Ludwig von Mises (produced by the Mises Institute). Of course, there is a clip of Ayn Rand praising the “new intellectual,” and condemning “the dark ages,” “superstitions”, etc. (unfortunately she doesn’t mention that “A is A”), all in less than a minute. Great stuff!!

The Mises Institute has a huge video archive, available here:
