Posting videos on the blog

Posting a video on the blog can basically be done two different ways:

1) If you find a video that you like on the internet in websites such as YouTube, TeacherTube, etc., you can find a code for embedding into your post in pretty much the same way you can embed a PowerPoint presentation (I discussed that in another post, label "embed").

2) If you have a video in your computer, you can upload directly to blogger by clicking on the "Add Video" icon on the posting window, and then choosing the file you want and click "Upload". The add video box will specify which formats are compatible, but basically they accept AVI, QuickTime and Windows Media formats, max size 100 MB.

A word of caution - a 15MB video I uploaded took a LONG TIME, so don't get discouraged if it seems to take a while.
