How-To: Embed video into your blog

Embeding video into your blog can be fairly simple given your blog host can support it. While I am still pretty new to blogging, I have an understanding of HTML.

It took me about 3 mins to google a fairly simple walkthrough on embeding video intoyour web site(s) and you can view that by clicking this link ---> HERE

To start you'll need a video file to embed, whether it is on your hard disk or hosted over the internet. Once you have that, you need to imbed it into your blog with a simple command like
"embed src=fielname.???""/embed" where the quotes are replaced by <> to start and close the command, also, "filename.???" is replaced by the name or URL of your file. If done right you should get results along the lines of this video.









You can also adjust the width and height of your embeded video but I suggest setting these parameters to the same specifications of the video itself or you'll get alot of unused space.
You, can set the video to loop or auto start, give it audio, forward and back controls, etc. If you would like to view the code I used to embed this video you can do so by clicking the "View" menu at the top of your web browser and choosing "Source" or "View Source" depending on your browser, and the browser will open a window with all the HTML used in the current web page you are viewing.

There are also many different types of video files, some including (but not limited to) .asf .mpg .avi .wma. .mov and many others. I have yet to embed a .mov file, but I'm sure its not much different that embeding other types as long as the correct call to a viewer that can play that file type is made. As an example, here is a flash video being played in its own viewer on my own private blog here at wayne-stgen12.blogspot.com/

Tech Tuesday - Hydrogen Powered Bike!


The ENV (Emissions Neutral Vehicle) bike was designed to Intelligent Energy's brief by a British team, led by multi-award-winning designers Seymourpowell. The ENV bike is fully-functioning and has been engineered and purpose-built (based around Intelligent Energy's CORE fuel cell) from the ground up, demonstrating the real, everyday applicability of fuel cell technology. The CORE, which is completely detachable from the bike, is a radically compact and efficient fuel cell, capable of powering anything from a motorboat to a small domestic property.



I found this while trying to hunt down specs on a wood fueled engine for a motorcycle, I read about a few months back. Let me tell you this blows that bike away... James Bond all over again.

If you would like more info on this Bike you can find it at... www.fuelcellsworks.com/Supppage2251.html

Didrick Medical Inc. is proud to introduce the X-Finger
The X-Finger® is the worlds first active-function artificial finger assembly designed specifically for partial finger amputees. The device allows users to regain complete control of the flexion and extension movements of an artificial finger in a self-contained device. It is designed to bend a silicone finger sheath in a realistic manner.


Wow... I think I want 8 of these, one for every finger I have. (I think I'll keep my thumbs) Think of what kind of things can be built off of this technology. Just imagine this type of finger with built in motors and/or powesupplieses, with memory locations for your keyboard, and an uplink to your brain. So instead of actually having to type all you have to do is think it. Much like the fingers of typists in Ghost In The Shell. Sounds better than buggy voice recognition software to me. Yes, Yes, I think I'll have 8 of those please. =D
