Tech Note: Still More Embedded Videos in Comments
Building on our new embedded YouTube video feature, you can now include Google and Liveleak videos in a comment as well. The procedure is similar to the method you use to embed YouTube videos:
1) Browse to the page at YouTube, Google or Liveleak that contains the video. At Google this is not the “video search” page; you get to the individual video page by clicking the link beneath the video that says, “Watch this video on video.google.com”.
2) Copy/paste the web address of the video (shown at the top of your browser window - not the “embed” link!) into the comment. The best way is to put this URL on a separate line, all by itself.
Everything else is automatic.
It’s fairly easy to add new video formats, so expect support for more video sharing sites soon…
