Video for Entertainment Speech
Here is a video that shows a young college CS student giving a speech about "why you should date a CS student." It's very funny and a great example of how a speech can be entertaining without the speaker being a comedian.
As in the article "Teaching History with Youtube" the author states that youtube is a good tool because so many famous historical events are available for viewing. The author gives an example of a news reel of Mussolini's execution, or Einstein explaining the theory of relativity. Both of these examples depict how Digital media can be used in education to relive and watch famous historical events.
In my class, I do a chapter on public speaking. It's very useful for me to include some digital media clips of different kinds of speech's so the students get to see examples of what they are going to do.
