"Suppose, instead of the dull, solemn letters on a board or a card you have a little play going on that the smallest youngster can understand." - Thomas Edison, 1911, on the film projector

Not For WatchKnow
WatchKnow ratings are intentionally harsher than what you might find on YouTube, for example. Most of our videos have been imported by people who want to use them with kids, not by the creators of the videos. We take a hard-nosed attitude toward quality. Four and five stars should be reserved for really excellent quality. Three stars isn't bad. Two is often watchable and shouldn't be ruled out.
5 stars = Exemplary.
Unusually helpful and well produced. Do not overuse this, please; it is not the standard rating for decent work, as it is elsewhere.
4 stars = Very Good.
Very helpful but not among the very best; adequately produced, at least.
3 stars = Usable.
Reasonably helpful, perhaps a bit amateurish in production or has some other problem; there is nothing wrong with a 3-star rating for amateur work!
2 stars = Some Merit.
Minimally helpful; not completely worthless or inappropriate; you can see how it might be useful to some people.
1 star = Not Right for WatchKnow.
Not at all helpful, not educational, poorest quality, etc.; you can't see it being useful to anyone.

Summary
History
In this video we talk about a few different web browsers you should check out. What do you currently use to browse the web, whether that is at home or on the go? Firefox is the browser that is recommended in this video. Firefox is open source and works very well. Flock is good for social media. Safari is now out for Windows and Mac.
Found by

Unless changed, the Finder is the person who uploaded the video to WatchKnow.
The Finder is allowed to "lock" information about the Owner and Producer (so other accounts cannot edit this information). The Finder field should match the Owner field when a video is entered in a contest.
As owner of a video, you can have finder rights transferred to you.
Simply click "Request Finder Rights" and an e-mail will be sent to the current Finder of the video. The Finder may then transfer rights to you. If he or she does not, bear in mind that an Administrator will see the refusal of your request and will be able to review it.
