Tutorial – MySpace – Video In Blog

Ever wonder how people manage to get videos into their blog, while the codes you enter only turn out as a row of little white dots? It’s easier than you think. This short tutorial will show you how. Happy blogging!

1. Sign in to your MySpace account and click on Blog – Post New Blog.

2. Enter a subject line and begin writing your blog entry.

3. When you’re done writing, CHECK the “View Source” button shown below.

4. Insert the embed code for your video.

5. Now UNCHECK the “View Source Button”.

6. Click “Preview And Post”. You should now see your blog text, along with a blank video window with a red x in the upper left-hand corner. This is not an error!

7. Click “Post”

Your video should now appear in your blog…:-)

P.S. If you want your video to start automatically, look for the url of the video within the code. It will appear twice. Take out the part I highlighted in blue in BOTH url’s and replace it with the following: autoplay=1
