    A question about blogging

    So, I've decided I'd definitely like to start a blog here and plan on doing the paypal thing as soon as I get home. I've been throwing together a little blog ready to post and I'm wondering if we are able to embed youtube videos in blogs, the way we can in posts here? If so, is there a limit to how many per post?

    Just wondering so I can have everything almost ready by morning!

    yup you can, and I *do* think there is a limit...because I think I ran in to that as an issue. Maybe 3? But I don't remember...

      3? oh dear. I think I might have problems then... I'll need to have a little think.

        Let me look into the settings for this.

          Oh thank you for fixing that. My blog looks all neat and tidy now. I just wish I could stop tweaking it. I keep finding typos and things I want to change.. it's like picking at a spot...

            LOL! Welcome to blogging! That's a normal thing, the fixing and picking. I've been blogging for three years and I still go back to my articles, re-over and nitpick little words. It's a habit. ;^_^
            Another thing is to try and use the draft option. I'm not sure how that works here, but on Wordpress it's easy to write a blog and save it as "draft", then open it later, edit, add, before posting it live. Then you can pick with it all that you want, without worrying about people not noticing your changes or additional information. Although, catching all the errors can be tough if not impossible (if you're a typo Queen like me), but I've noticed that people who read blogs aren't so picky about a wrong word or typo every now and then. As long as what you want to convey comes across well to the reader, typos aren't a big deal. I've had a lot of "likes" to posts in the past that was riddled with bad grammar mistakes and typos. LOL! Most of all, have fun! When you're having fun with what you're writing, it comes across to the reader and they in turn have fun too.

            Woah... yeah, I didn't mean to sounds like an instructor or anything. I'm just really into blogging. ;^_^

              No no, I'm thankful for any tips! Thanks for the advice. I did preview it first, but only to check that the videos were working properly. It was mainly the song at the end that was full of bad romaji, that I had to change. I also sometimes wrote things politely, and sometimes casual without thinking. I'd decided to give all verbs in the masu form and I've noticed I wrote tsukareru instead of tsukaremasu (I think that's the verb I messed up), but I'm on my phone so I'll fix that later.. it's everytime I look at it, I see something else I screwed up!
