I have been learning how to embed videos and images from various sources into blogger. Below I have described my efforts towards same.
I have googled a few posts for tutorials on how to embed images and videos into blogger posts. After reading a post by Peter Chen, I have learnt the basics of how to embed a video into Blogger. Silly me, all these days I was only watching videos on YouTube but never paid attention to what was on the right panel on the video pages. Only today I realized that YouTube also provides a code for users like me who would like to embed the videos on their posts. Immediately I copied this code and posted it here as you can see below.
Peter Chen also posted that we could resize the video window to suite our post and blog template. I have tried resizing the video window (from the source code available from YouTube) to a smaller size. When I previewed this after editing, I could not see the video window in the preview. Alarmed, I set back the height and width attributes of the video back to default and now I could see the video window in the preview too. Probably the code of the video has some sort of dependency on the size parameters too!!!
Following the same procedure, I have tried to embed an image file in the post. Changing the attributes of the source code of the video file to an image source did no good. Right now, I'm hunting for a tutorial on how to embed and image file on the posts. Expert bloggers may find this silly nothings...but being a novice in the vertical of blogging, I love to learn & experiment my questions.
Neways, here is the video for my earlier post Johnny Sokko and his Flying Robot.
I was just casually browing the videos on YouTube when I came across this amazing and really nice video...Johnny Sokko and his Flying Robot. I remember watching this video when I was a kid in school. During those good ol' days, DD was the only channel in our tv sets. This series was telecast every friday around 5.30 in the evening. Gosh...I, infact all of my friends (I bet) used to watch this flick without missing for a second...I always had a time clash coz my math tutor drops in the same time to my house. I remember skipping my math class at times just to watch this flick on tv. Actually, his son used to drop and pick him up him at my home. I used to hide at the end of the street on my bicycle and watch his movements. He, not to mention but a very elderly and learned person, used to glare at the lock hanging on my house's front door for a while, and then leave with his son assuming I was late from school. Oohhh...forgot to mention, both my parents were working and hence I used to have a entry key for myself. They used to return late at around 6 or 6.30 in the evenings from work while I come back from school @ 4pm. Wish I could get back to school again !!!
I swear, I'll watch this series if it were telecast today. Gosh, I love this series very much. Each time Johnny Sokko along with his flying robot defeat and win over the evil attacks from the enemies and save the world from disasters. This video on youtube has refreshed my memories and took me back to the good ol' school days when I was a kid. Hail Gaint Robot. Wacth the duo in action on YouTube. Enjoy the video.
