Want to show what you're doing? Try out Google Video!

Google has the usual twenty-page agreement that you must click "I agree" plus an optional custom uploader for mass video uploads. Once you've uploaded your video, you log into Google's website to add a title, comments, and even transcripts if you so choose.

As an example of the user interface, see Diagnosis of an espresso extraction with the Elektra A3.

As you can see in Videos of espresso extractions, google now supports embedded videos. You can use the board's "[gvideo]" tags to embed a google video within a post. Simply paste the google video URL for your upload and surround it with tags as shown below:

[gvideo]http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=8437077728204590683[/gvideo]

This will embed the video in your post and automatically add a link to it:



If you only have one or two videos to upload and don't wish to create a google video account, e-mail me (use the file forwarding service yousendit.com if the file size is more than two megabytes). I'll upload it to my account and send you the URL.

The board also supports videos from YouTube. To embed your video, surrounding the URL with [youtube] tags as shown below:

[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y9oy8-TwLvc[/youtube]

This will be displayed as:

Vimeo is supported too, but be certain the embedded option is allowed:

Vimeo FAQ wrote:Users have the power to disable embedding in their privacy settings. If you aren't seeing the embed option, it means the owner of the video has disabled it. You cannot disable embedding without making your video private.

Note that Vimeo supports HD quality video, but it's a "premium" subscription feature. Be aware that if you use Vimeo premium features and let your subscription lapse, future HB visitors will not be able to see your video and may not be able to understand the context of your contributions to HB.

Below is an example of the markup:

[vimeo]http://www.vimeo.com/6020553[/vimeo]

And the result:
