How can I embed things into a blog post?

  To embed something like a YouTube video, Ted Talk, Slideshare presentation, or Quizlet set of flashcards into a blog post... First copy the code from the source material.  Depending on the source, it might say 'embed', 'share', or use a special icon.

YouTube	Ted Talk
Quizlet	Slideshare
Prezi	Authorstream

  

Create a new post in blogger and click on the 'html' tab.

'Paste' the code into your post.  You can then click the compose tab and add a text description and/or other materials to the post.
