Tutorial 8: Posting YouTube Videos and Flickr Badges to Blogs: Explaining the process

In today's tutorial we are looking at how to embed different types of media (video and photos) into our blogs. YouTube is an amazing site which contains lots of how-to videos. Whatever you want to learn how to do, there will almost always be someone who has uploaded a video explaining it. So I went into youtube.com to find a how-to video for embedding YouTube videos and Flickr badges. It's really easy, but I guess many people would benefit from a video to follow (Visual, Aural, Kinesthetic learning!)

Okay I changed my mind. There was a video on YouTube explaining how to embed a Flickr badge but I thought it was unnecessarily convoluted. And strangely there was only one how-to video. Perhaps I was using the wrong keywords or not enough alternatives. Anyway the Flickr website takes users through the step by step process of embedding a photo badge. It's quite straightforward. Just start with this link, which is the Flickr Badge Generator. You'll be asked to sign in, then it's a simple 4-step process and at the end you get a chunk of html code which you simply copy and paste as per how you did it for embedding the YouTube video, ie go to "New Post", click "Edit Html" and paste the code there. Go ahead, you can do it!
