    What kind of blog software you are using?

    If you use wordpress, there is a plugin for that you can use.

    Hello,

    Now are you wanting to get YouTube on your sidebar or in your post?

    If you are looking for them to be on the post it self, it is not hard at all, just go to YouTube and find the video you want and put the embedded code into your page.

    Now, if you are wanting to get a sidebar YouTube, then go to wordpress.com and find the following plugin.

    WP-YouTube

    It is a plugin that will allow you to install and it will be added to your sidebar. Just follow the instructions and you should be good to go. Once you put the code in the sidebar you just need to change the profile name to equal to your profile or your YouTube video ID.

    If you have any other questions please feel free to ask.

    you gotta get the embeed code and paste it on your site. I have a macbook and use Iweb, so all I have to do is push the HTML button and put the code in and wah-la...its done.

    How about a little more information? Do you want a custom made video, are you wanting videos on a certain topic, what blogging software are you using?

    Most of the time you can just use the embed code supplied by youtube.

    If you want to make your own video, all you need is a video camera that films at least 30 frames a second in at least 640X480. The use windows movie maker to edit the video. Then upload to youtube.
