Adding stuff to a BLOGGER blog:

Most things involve copying a bit of code from a website and pasting it into a new post
in blogger:

1. Video:
Upload your video to any of:

1. YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/
2. Google Video: http://video.google.com/
3. Stage 6 (the best quality – must be DivX): http://stage6.divx.com

You have to find the part of the page where it gives you the code that you can EMBED
in blogger. Just copy and paste it into a new blogger post.

Here’s an example from YouTube:

<object width="425" height="353"><param name="movie"

value="http://www.youtube.com/v/8P84bfFpVWE&rel=1"></param><param name="wmode"
value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/8P84bfFpVWE&rel=1"
type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425"
height="353"></embed></object>

The numbers highlighted are the size of the movie, I change it to 610x500 by altering
the two pairs of numbers. In Google video there is only one number.

2. Pictures:
You have to put your photos online:

flickr: http://www.flickr.com
To embed a slideshow of a set on flickr you need to find the number that
corresponds to a set and then copy that into the following:

<iframe align=center src=http://www.flickr.com/slideShow/index.gne?set_id=SET NUMBER HERE

frameBorder=0 width=500 scrolling=no height=500></iframe>

Extra: width can either be 100% (it fits the width of the column) or a number of
pixels – “600”. The height also needs a number but NOT a % as the blog doesn’t have
a maximum height for a post.

The best size is probably 600x600 depending on the width of the column – mess
around

To add a link to the full screen slideshow – use the same set number here:
<a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/simontaylor/sets/PUT SET NUMBER HERE/show/">Full
Screen Slideshow Here</a>
You can also embed a slideshow using the labels using this:
<iframe
src="http://www.flickr.com/slideShow/index.gne?user_id=41948864@N00&amp;tags=TAG HERE"
align="middle" frameborder="0" height="500" scrolling="no" width="500"></iframe>

picasaweb: http://picasaweb.google.com/home
Picasaweb is integrated in picasa and you can upload directly from picasa to a web
album with a few choices of embeddable players
Once you are signed in with your google account it’s easy to embed slideshows from
picasa, just copy the code, paste it in and you’re done.

bubbleshare: http://www.bubbleshare.com
Bubbleshare has the best embed code – some great flash slideshows that cross the
screen nicely and you can add a commentary if you want. Just register and upload.
Easy to use.

3. Slideshows:
Upload your slideshows to:
http://www.slideburner.com/ and copy the embed code and paste it in to your blog
post
There are other places such as http://www.slideshare.net or even
http://www.scribd.com/

4. Documents including most Office formats:

Just use: http://www.scribd.com/
It’s so easy to upload any documents and then embed the code for the document on
your blog. People can even download the original in different formats and it’s ALL
FREE

5. WebSites
This can sometimes be quite good, but you could always just use a link.
Here’s the code:

<iframe src="INSERT FULL ADDRESS HERE" align="middle" frameborder="0" height=650

scrolling="yes" width=100%></iframe>

Remember width can also be a number rather than a %
