Cool Tip: Downloading You Tubes into a file that you can embed easily into a slideshow.

All you need to do is insert the word 'kick' into the address bar. (see below)

e.g.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fnh9q_cQcUE becomes http://kickyoutube.com/watch/?v=Fnh9q_cQcUE

Follow the on screen instructions once you've been redirected top the 'Kick' site. I downloaded a You Tube Clip as a Mp4 which embeds easily into KeyNote! If I were using PowerPoint I'd download that clip as a .wmv file.

I'm exploring this blog so will give putting a slideshow with a You Tube clip into it soon!

Test 1, 2 3...just starting to play around with blogging. I'm keen as mustard to see what they can be used for in an education. So far so good, was easy to set up and get online.
