YouTube

[Stuart Thiessen]

Actually, did you know that YouTube allows you to embed the uploaded 
videos into your own webpage? So, here's how I think it could work ...

Suppose the DAC has a YouTube account. Then, I list the DAC account as 
one of my "friends" in YouTube. Then I can easily post my YouTube video 
and share it privately to the DAC account. Then you should be able to 
embed it in the webpage that is accessible to the DAC or the 
SignWriting List. We would have to play around with those features, but 
it is possible. Otherwise, I can make it public and then you can embed 
it from my public videos. Either way should work.

That is how many people are doing vlogs (video logs) today. They post 
the video to YouTube and then embed it on their webpage (which actually 
pulls the video from YouTube and not their website).

FYI,

Stuart
