How do I post video to my blog?

How does one post or blog a video from yahoo?

  • For example, I have this news link: http://news.yahoo.com/s/livescience/studyworldgetshappier the video on this page is titled: "the secrets to denmark's happiness." the video only gives me the options to "IM" it, or to email it to a friend. Does anyone know of a loophole? Thanks!

  • Answer:

    Not for those videos, as they are posted by the news service on their website. They control the sharing options there. You would have to look on publicly-searchable video services to see if someone re-posted the video there. In relation to a Yahoo!360 blog, since the specific blog used hasn't been specified: - Find the embed code for the video that you want to add. Go to http://video.yahoo.com/ and search for the video. You can choose a video from YouTube and Google Video (and even more services than that - like Veoh). See http://www.youtube.com/sharing for example of what and where an embed code would be for that site. - 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/blog/blog-33.html for the help page regarding embedding video into your blog. You can also add a link to the video's web page to your Blast, Blogroll, or a blog entry (by typing the name of the link, selecting the name, then using the "Add Link" button on the entry's toolbar to add the web address). NOTE: Java or javascript does not work in 360. Some flash codes - like the ones used for the mentioned video services - typically do.
