The people who've helped bring pyvideo.org back created a static site
generator for python videos. If you get enough videos together to present a
good page, maybe you could reuse their approach. The metadata for videos
allows for showing related links on the video page.

I suggest a dedicated youtube account, maybe with channels or playlists.

I also will point out that if you have at least 30 videos or so and will
continue to collect more, you can also ask for a special collection on
archive.org. This will depend on how much time you want to spend
downloading the yt stuff to upload to archive.org. (there are scripts to
help). I personally like when people don't rely on a business (youtube) for
archiving their media but am not dogmatic.

e.g. https://archive.org/details/pyvideo
(I need to clean up some of the videos in there. when they created the
collection for us they moved some personal videos in to the collection)

relurking :)
