from Mashable: YouTube Goes Old, Old School With Library of Congress

YouTube Goes Old, Old School With Library of Congress

Posted: 07 Apr 2009 11:16 AM PDT

youtube logoWant to see the earliest movie ever made? If you think you need to visit some dusty archive, you're wrong; as of today, it's available on YouTube; more precisely, on Library of Congress' YouTube channel.
The Library of Congress stores around 6 million films, broadcasts and sound recordings, but they aren't all immediately available on YouTube; instead, they're starting off with a modest 70 films. However, Library of Congress' Matt Raymond promises they won't stop at this number (as sometimes happens with YouTube's content deals); they plan to keep adding content, although Matt doesn't say how much or when.
Currently, the videos include the National Book Festival author presentations, "Westinghouse" industrial films from 1904, as well as some of the earliest movies ever made by motion picture pioneer Thomas Edison.
So, if you need some rest from all those funny cat videos you've been exposed to on YouTube, check out a really old video below.
