Bløf & Counting Crows - Holiday in Spain (Live @ TOTP-NL)

I just thought I would attempt embedding a YouTube video within my blog. Using available Web-20 tools and researching online, I was successful in embedding a musical video. This is one of my favorite Dutch/American songs. Blof is a very popular Dutch band and they teamed up with the Counting Crows. I hope you enjoy this song as much as I do.

I'm having a tough time viewing this at work...could be firewall or other issues. Can you post something else or dicuss this in print? Thanks, Hal

Posting the YouTube video link on my blog took time to figure out. It is something that I have never done before, so it was a new challenge. I had to research the process and a few initial attempts failed because not properly embedding the links correctly onto the blog. So, there was both research and testing involved (trial and error). Yes it was something that I was interested in doing, because I can use what I learned on other websites or blogs that I create in the future. But, it is all part of the Web2.0 discovery and learning process.

Another experiment in Web 2.0 might involve a free virtual classroom like WiZiQ.com. The accounts are free. You can take courses or set up courses you conduct for other people to attend.

Great song and stream, Chris. I've had to tailor my html to relocate my illustrations and fine tune the layout.

We have a game site for Warhammer Online (soon to be released) that my family hosts where we embedded YouTube and other video content.

The advantage with these tools is your ability to weave your information with multimedia and distribute the content easily. *smiles* Thanks!
