Digital Education in Emerging Spaces

Youtube and Voltron

I literally have to fight off the urge to post every little thing I see of interest, nostalgic, goofy, or otherwise, from Youtube.

Consider yourself lucky you weren’t just subjected to a clip from Knight Rider, Alvin and the Chipmunks and Voltron in painful succession.

Looking at that picture, tell me Voltron still doesn’t do it for you. I am so Keith.

I even had the Voltron sleeping bag, which really has nothing to do with the show, but that didn’t seem to bother me twenty years ago.
