How do I place video's like utube on my blog?

Here's what you can do:





1. Go to youtube .com and choose the video you would like to post. Copy the embedded html code





2. Go to My Blog / compose new entry





3. Make sure you type something first in the compose page.





4. Click on view html on the top right handside of your compose page





5. What you have typed before appears here with some strange characters but do not delete.





6. Paste the embedded video html code which you have copied from youtube





7. As Yahoo! 360 is a bit buggy right now copy your html compose page just in case your posting doesn't show up. You can try again later and easily paste it in a new entry.





8. Click on Preview and Post

How do I place video's like utube on my blog?
- Find the embed code for the video that you want to add. See http://www.youtube.com/sharing , for example. You can choose a video from Yahoo! Video, YouTube, or Google Video.


- Click on "My Blog" and create a new entry.


- Type some text in the actual entry space as well, as it might not save.


- Click the box next to "View HTML source" in the upper right of the entry space before adding code.


- Copy the embed code and paste it into the space.


- Click the box next to "View HTML source" to get back to regular view if necessary. It may not show up until the entry is Previewed or Saved.


- Click "Save" button and see if it appears.





See http://help.yahoo.com/l/us/yahoo/360/blo... for the help page regarding embedding video into your blog.





Also, you can add the web page address to your Blast's URL field or create a link in a blog entry or blog roll.
