What would you like to see on a team's YouTube channel?

I've been working hard to improve our social networking and now I post new content onto our Twitter and new Facebook page as often as I can. I'm struggling with what to put onto the YouTube account, though, so I turned to Chief Delphi to help. What would you like to see / normally put on a robotics YouTube account? Impromptu vlogs by our team leaders? Weekly team updates? Tips on different things? Something else? Anything you can offer is immensely appreciated!

Video documentation of the various final mechanism designs (including a brief discussion of motivation and/or subtleties not immediately apparent) that can be found on one channel would be really great for teams to look back on in future years when trying not to reinvent the wheel.

I know that 449 would really benefit from doing this, at any rate - our previous youtube videos of various mechanisms have been scattered all over the place and are very loosely structured.

Thanks for all of the ideas so far! I really want to do a robot reveal video this year, which we've never done before. I'd also like to do the explaining of mechanisms videos, but it might not work out with my team. Vlogs seem like a good and relatively easy thing to do as well.

Some vlog's of your team might be cool, too. Short updates/journals or something of the sort.
