Actually, there is a new little icon above where you would type your new post where you can upload small clips from your computer - i.e. video clips from your phone or camera that you have taken. But, actually I've been piggy-backing my video clips from Youtube or Myspacetv.com. How you do this is - once you find something you would like to post (on youtube or myspacetv) There are usually a couple of lines in the video description (to the right or underneath the video) one says URL and then gives you a bunch of gibberish - the other says EMBED and it gives you more gibberish. It looks something like this object width = yadda yadda yadda This is code that your computer understands even if you don't. So, you click on the gibberish (make sure it is all highlighted) and type "ctrl C" at the same time to copy it. When you are posting your comment press enter after you type a line or two and press "ctrl V" at the same time to paste this gibberish text in your acutal post. For these, you DON'T use the little icon at the top of the text box - you just make sure this gibberish text is in the body of your post. Give it a try, it is really easy once you get the hang of it - and you look really smart. :)
Have a great week everyone!

I'm sorry, I failed to mention you want the EMBED option - if you copy and paste the URL it will give you a hyperlink and actually take you to the other website to view the video (which is not as nice)
I now just need to start watching you tube.
