YouTube on Your Site

YouTube on Your Site

Whatever presence you have on the Internet—a large website, a blog, a social network page, or pretty much anything else—there are many ways to integrate YouTube into it. From simple video embeds to our full-powered APIs, you can integrate video at all levels of technical expertise.
Bringing YouTube to your site is more than just adding some of the millions of videos available on YouTube. It keeps your visitors interested and allows self-expression and interaction with one of their favorite services. And it brings your site, blog, or page into the YouTube video community—an international network of users, creators, and sites connected through the Web's largest collection of online videos.
We've highlighted some typical ways of integrating video content below—just click the arrow next to the question to get the answer. If you have any questions or suggestions, or projects that you would like us to know about, please leave a post at the Developer Forum.

The Basics

How do I add a video to my blog or web page?

  1. You'll need to edit the HTML of your blog entry or page—this should be relatively straightforward. In Blogger, for example, just click the "Edit HTML" tab.
  2. Next, go to the video that you want, and look for the 'Embed' box in the "About This Video" section. Copying the HTML code that's there into your website will create an embedded player; the video will play within your site when the user clicks on the 'Play' button.
  3. You can resize the player by editing the object width="425" and height="350" fields at both the beginning and end of the embedded player code. Make sure that the sizes you choose have the same ratio as the default numbers, so that the video doesn't get stretched—just multiply the width by 0.8235 to get the height.

How do I add a playlist to my blog or web page?

To show a selection of videos that is easily editable, embed a playlist. When you update the playlist on YouTube, the playlist on your site will update as well. This is a good way of creating longer stories through a series of videos, or simply giving your readers more pre-selected content to watch.
  1. To create a playlist, go to the My Playlists page, click 'Create a Playlist' and fill out the information.
  2. As you find videos you like on YouTube, click 'Add to Playlist' under the player to add them to your list. You can change the order of the videos in your playlist by returning to the 'My Playlist' page.
  3. The easiest way to embed a playlist is to create a custom player. Go to your YouTube account and click "Custom Video Players", then "Create Custom Player". Select a color and format for your player, and then choose what is going to play in it—you can choose a playlist, your own uploaded content, or your favorites—and then click the "Generate Code" button.
  4. Copy and paste the code into your blog entry or web page, just as you did with the embedded video above.

How do I add a video to my social network page?

Adding videos to your profiles on social networks like MySpace and Facebook is a great way to share your videos or favorites with friends. Or, if you're promoting something (like your band) on MySpace, videos will help attract visitors to your page, who can then then share the link with their friends. The social network sites have similar ways to add videos, so we'll use MySpace as an example.
  1. Sign in to your MySpace profile, then click the "Edit Profile" button.
  2. Next, go to the video that you want, and look for the 'Embed' box in the "About This Video" section. Copying the HTML code that's there into your website will create an embedded player.
  3. You can resize the player by editing the object width="425" and height="350" fields at both the beginning and end of the embedded player code. Make sure that the sizes you choose have the same ratio as the default numbers, so that the video doesn't get stretched—just multiply the width by 0.8235 to get the height.
  4. Click "Preview", and then "Submit".

Harry Nilsson – Coconut Lyrics, Put the Lime in the Coconut

ARTIST: Harry Nilsson
TITLE: Coconut

Brother bought a coconut, he bought it for a dime
His sister had another one, she paid it for the lime

She put the lime in the coconut, she drank 'em both up (3x)
Put the lime in the coconut, she called the doctor, woke him up, and said

Doctor, ain't there nothin' I can take, I said
Doctor, to relieve this bellyache, I said
Doctor, ain't there nothin' I can take, I said
Doctor, to relieve this bellyache

Now let me get this straight
Put the lime in the coconut, you drank 'em both up (3x)
Put the lime in the coconut, you called your doctor, woke him up, and said

Doctor, ain't there nothin' I can take, I said
Doctor, to relieve this bellyache, I said
Doctor, ain't there nothin' I can take, I said
Doctor, to relieve this bellyache

You put the lime in the coconut, you drink 'em both together
Put the lime in the coconut, then you feel better
Put the lime in the coconut, drink 'em both up
Put the lime in the coconut, and call me in the morning

Brother bought a coconut, he bought it for a dime
His sister had another one, she paid it for the lime
She put the lime in the coconut, she drank 'em both up
Put the lime in the coconut, she called the doctor, woke him up, and said

Doctor, ain't there nothin' I can take, I said
Doctor, to relieve this bellyache, I said
Doctor, ain't there nothin' I can take, I said
Now let me get this straight

You put the lime in the coconut, you drink 'em both up (3x)
Put the lime in the coconut, you're such a silly woman

Put the lime in the coconut, you drink 'em both together
Put the lime in the coconut, then you feel better
Put the lime in the coconut, drink 'em both down
Put the lime in the coconut, and call me in the morning

Woo-oo, ain't there nothin' you can take, I said
Woo-oo, to relieve your bellyache, you said
Woo-oo, ain't there nothin' I can take, I said
Woo-oo, to relieve your bellyache, you say

Yeah-ah, ain't there nothing I can take, I say
Wow-ow, to relieve this bellyache, I said
Doctor, ain't there nothin' I can take, I said (3x)
Doctor, you're such a silly woman

Put the lime in the coconut, you drink 'em both together
Put the lime in the coconut, then you feel better
Put the lime in the coconut, drink 'em both up
Put the lime in the coconut, and call me in the mo-o-ornin'

Yes, you call me in the morning
If you call me in the morning I'll tell you what to do {repeat to fade}

Bee Gees You Should Be Dancing lyrics, hear it

The Bee Gees were a singing trio of brothers - Barry, Robin, and Maurice Gibb - that became one of the most successful musical acts of all time. They were born on the Isle of Man to English parents, lived in England and moved to Australia during their childhood years, where they began their musical careers. The group's name is derived from the initials "B.G.", primarily standing for "The Brothers Gibb." The Bee Gees added the second "E" to the "Bee" to be next to The Beatles in music stores.

Bee Gees

Use Videos to Network and get visitors to your site



This is a video I made for Mr Craig when he had cancer. He wouldn't take any pain medication so I got him beside me and showed him the wonders of blogging. He was glued to the computer until he made a complete recovery. I used this video and others to get visitors to his site. These types of videos are easy to make and are a really effective way to network and get visitors to your site!

Blip.fm Adds YouTube Videos - Yea for the DJs, How to Network and DJ at YouTube

Social music site Blip.fm added YouTube videos to its music feed today, allowing users to turn its “Twitter for music” service into a social video playlisting site. The free service, which allows users to listen to songs and share them in playlists that resemble Twitter’s interface, now includes a window for watching videos as the songs play. It’s a sort of on-demand, social MTV — at least one that’s reminiscent of the era when MTV actually played music videos.

The move also beefs up Blip.fm’s audio content offering for U.S. users, although recent changes to its content library have left some international users with fewer songs from which to choose. Blip.fm recently began sourcing songs via Imeem but eliminated content from MP3 search engine Skreemr, which scraped the web for songs wherever they were lying around. While that’s generally a boon to U.S. users, many international listeners have reported that their full songs have been replaced by frustrating 30-second clips.
What does this mean for US, the Blip.fm Dj's?
Now you have access to full length, beautiful versions of the songs you blip! But you won't find them all searching on Blip: try searching from YouTube and then carefully copy entire youtube title into blip search.
NOW YOU CAN DJ AT YOUTUBE TOO!
Sign in to YouTube with your Google account and use the PLAYLISTS feature on your profile to collect and sort your Blip Playlist at YouTube.
Still don't get it? Two ways to add your Blip playlist to YouTube:
1. Set up your YouTube profile page and log in. In a seperate window open Blip.
When you see a song with a video you like AT BLIP click the youtube logo in the lower right hand corner of the video. This will take you to homepage of the video at YouTube. Underneath the video you will be able to add it to YOUR YouTube PAGE.
Choose Favorites and or choose playlists and create one on the spot such as SOUL Music or Love Songs....You can then add others to the catagory!
2. Search YouTube for your Blip songs and add them to your YT profile page.
These pages can be customized and I LOVE Mine
see what you can do MINE
Networking at YouTube
You don't have to upload videos at YT to network...Blip DJs are going to dominate YouTube just as they have taken Twitter by Storm!
When you find a song/video you like click the subscribe button and let the person know you have added the video to your playlist in comments.

And the sign said long haired freaky people need not apply



"Signs"


V1
And the sign said long haired freaky people need not apply
So I tucked my hair up under my hat and I went in to ask him why
He said you look like a fine upstanding young man, I think you'll do
So I took off my hat I said imagine that, huh, me working for you
woah!

Chorus:

Sign Sign everywhere a sign
Blocking out the scenery breaking my mind
Do this, don't do that, can't you read the sign

V2
And the sign said anybody caught trespassing would be shot on sight
So I jumped on the fence and yelled at the house, Hey! what gives you the right
To put up a fence to keep me out or to keep mother nature in
If God was here, he'd tell you to your face, man you're some kinda sinner

Repeat Chorus:

Bridge:

Now, hey you Mister! can't you read, you got to have a shirt and tie to get a seat
You can't even watch, no you can't eat, you ain't suppose to be here
Sign said you got to have a membership card to get inside Uh!

V3
And the sign said everybody welcome, come in, kneel down and pray
But when they passed around the plate at the end of it all,
I didn't have a penny to pay, so I got me a pen and a paper and I made up my own little sign
I said thank you Lord for thinking about me, I'm alive and doing fine

Repeat Chorus
Repeat Chorus

Steely Dan, Do it Again Lyrics and tour news


Steely Dan-Do It Again
In the mornin you go gunnin
For the man who stole your water
And you fire till he is done in
But they catch you at the border
And the mourners are all singin
As they drag you by your feet
But the hangman isnt hangin
And they put you on the street

Chorus:
You go back jack do it again
Wheel turnin round and round
You go back jack do it again

When you know shes no high climber
Then you find your only friend
In a room with your two timer
And youre sure youre near the end
Then you love a little wild one
And she brings you only sorrow
All the time you know shes smilin
Youll be on your knees tomorrow

Chorus

Now you swear and kick and beg us
That youre not a gamblin man
Then you find youre back in vegas
With a handle in your hand
Your black cards can make you money
So you hide them when youre able
In the land of milk and honey
You must put them on the table
