Through these video pod casts, the site creates a community of children who learn the art of self-expression and storytelling through video. The site is free of charge.<BR/><BR/>MeetMeAtTheCorner.org currently offers more than 40 three- to four- minute episodes. Recent additions include interviews with famous artists and writers, trips to a variety of New York City historic and cultural landmarks, and introductions to unusual hobbies. New trips are added every three weeks. <BR/><BR/>I thought your readers might enjoy the current episode featuring astronomer Dennis Mammana and a virtual field trip to the Paolomar Observatory. The visit celebrates 2009 The International Year of Astronomy.<BR/><BR/><BR/>Would you review our site and pass it on to your readers?<BR/><BR/>Thank you,<BR/><BR/>Donna Guthrie<BR/>www.donnaguthrie.com<BR/>www.meetmeatthecorner.orgDonna GUTHRIEhttp://www.meetmeathecorner.orgnoreply@blogger.com
