Video Hosting Sites

This week I explored various video hosting sites and learned how to add a video clip to my blog post. I began by going to YouTube to select a video. I chose Lolly Lolly Lolly get your adverbs here. I spent many a Saturday morning, in the 1970's, watching cartoons on ABC. The Schoolhouse Rock segments were some of my favorites. I wish I could say the entire process was easy...but it was not. Following the instructions we were given, once in Blogger, I selected the edit html tab & pasted the code in the window. I then selected the compose tab and attempted to type my comments. Not only did I have problems adding my comments, unbeknownst to me, the entire code wasn't being displayed. After much frustration, I consulted with a much younger colleague, who advised me to paste the code into a word document and copy it again. Finally, on my third attempt I got it to work. Below is my video. Enjoy the clip:

I really like your blog! I didn't know you lived in Germany as an adolescent - that is too cool. You are a very good writer, and good at describing the ins and outs of these exercises! It's almost over...
