YouTube and sharing videos

[james]

I've been thinking about a good way of adding Video sharing to the FB Forum. There are a couple of things we can do, but it seems as though leveraging YouTube is a good way to go.

1. I am making a modification where you can post and watch a YouTube video within a thread. We'll see if I can make it work.

2. I am going to be making a channel for FB on YouTube. That will let FB post videos in a set location, and members can register to be kept up to date with the channel.

3. I am still researching the best way to share videos within the FB Forum, while using the YouTube infrastructure. I'm not sure if we can let FB Forum members post videos within the FB channel. More to come on that. In fact, more to come on all of it.

Let me know if you have any ideas for us.

OK, that's it. You type:

youtube with [] on either side, the youtube ID #, and /youtube with [] on either side.
Nice,

Way to go David. I think this is really going to be helpful.

What do you think? A little more flame. :-) Ah, the power of video.
