I would suggest you move on to any of the links on the right and pick up on another topic to get up to speed with tech stuff out there.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Getting Started With YouTube Videos<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>First off a little bit of housekeeping. You do not have to produce your own videos to get something to share. <a href=\"\/\/local.brightwhiz\/tag\/youtube\/\">YouTube<\/a> does not restrict you from sharing other people&#8217;s videos. So that is some good news. We are already thirty percent done.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Steps to Embedding a YouTube Video<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Go to the YouTube website and identify the video you want to embed if you haven&#8217;t done that already. Note: Do not fall into the YouTube trap of clicking on the recommendations. Things can get addictive there.<\/li><li>Just under the video there are three links labeled <strong>Add<\/strong>, <strong>Share<\/strong> and <strong>More<\/strong>. Click on the <strong>Share<\/strong> link as illustrated below. <p>\u00a0<\/p><figure><a href=\"http:\/\/local.brightwhiz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/youtube-embed.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"484\" height=\"231\" class=\"size-full wp-image-2862 alignnone\" src=\"http:\/\/local.brightwhiz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/youtube-embed.jpg\" alt=\"YouTube Share or Embed\" srcset=\"http:\/\/local.brightwhiz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/youtube-embed.jpg 484w, http:\/\/local.brightwhiz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/youtube-embed-320x153.jpg 320w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 484px) 100vw, 484px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>  <p>Once that s done, YouTube will reveal three tabs right below it labeled <strong>Share<\/strong>, <strong>Embed<\/strong> and <strong>Email<\/strong>.<\/p> <\/li><li>Select the Embed Option to reveal the <strong>Embed Code<\/strong> as follows.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-prismatic-blocks\"><code class=\"language-markup\">&lt;iframe src=&quot;https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/h79LB-i--HU&quot; width=&quot;560&quot; height=&quot;315&quot; frameborder=&quot;0&quot; allowfullscreen=&quot;allowfullscreen&quot;&gt; &lt;\/iframe&gt;<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Copy the link which looks like the one above and paste it on you website wherever you want the video to appear.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>That&#8217;s all there is to it.
