Hi Sandy,

I'm not familiar with it. Have a link?

Interesting concept. I'll have to try it out and write a proper review. Of course, I prefer making videos myself, either through screencasting or with my hand-held HD cam...

I tried it for one month and I say stay away. The system is fast and easy to use but the videos it creates are terrible. The voices sound like robots and although you can add your own voice you have to pay more for it and quite frankly I think it would be better to create your own videos using powerpoint to share the content in your articles.

Any kind of video marketing is effective, if the videos appeal to your market and have a call-to-action to them. You can get a free version of powerpoint (and other office suite tools) at http://www.openoffice.org

Hi Sona,

That video is on about.com - and unless they give you the code to embed it on your site, you aren't allowed to do that. You'll have to find content on a video sharing site like YouTube.com or similar that will allow you to embed their videos on your own site.

yes you need the embed code and most youtube videos allow you to do it. To change the size of the video you need to find the part in the code where it says the length and width of the video and change it. There are 2 places where it says this. hope this helps.

There is actually a tool beside the embed code that will open up options. Select the sizing options you want to use and it will change the code for you. Copy that code and then paste it into your blog post.

You can upload your own videos to YouTube first, then use the embed code from YouTube to place it in your blog post.

Hi Lynn

Can't we use the videos itself from YouTube to upload without making our own videos??

You don't upload those - you embed them using the embed code right there on the video page.

Hi Lynn

Is it the same way as we do in Blogger? ie Embedding

Yes - just give it a try and you'll see.

Make sure you embed in the HTML code, not in the design view.
