Uploading to YouTube
Usually you would take some video, download it onto your computer and maybe edit it to be just how you want it before uploading.
This workshop is only looking at how to upload, it is not a workshop on video editing.
Uploading from a computer
Google instructions
Uploading from an iphone (sorry I can't cover all smart phone technology!)
You can also select to autoshare any YouTube video you upload to social networking sites making life even simpler for you to get your content out there.

Sharing a YouTube video
Any time you see a YouTube video you will notice there is a button underneath that says SHARE
Clicking on this will give you the option of a tiny URL type link that you can copy and paste into a medium like twitter, onto a blog or anywhere really.
You also receive an option to email the video but you must have a google or YouTube account.
You don't need a google account, but if you have one you can link this to your YouTube account.
You can then use YouTube to actually send a link to the video.
You can also share directly to social networking media such as FaceBook or Twitter, but there is a show more link if you want to share it somewhere else.
The video will become embedded in your social networking page.
If you want to embed the video yourself into a web page of your own you can click on EMBED
YouTube will supply you with the HTML code that you can copy and paste. It will look something very much like the following code:
<iframe title="YouTube video player" width="480" height="390" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/iWzwLGJ0BIo" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>
