    We've always had videos on LP but never a way to just browse all of the videos we've had available. Well now we do. We're still in the process of converting old videos and making them all available but what's been done so far is now available - more than 300 in all. Once all the old ones are done there should be somewhere around 1,000.

    In addition, videos can now be downloaded by clicking on the little down arrow in the video player. That'll save it out in Flash's FLV format. You can then use any FLV player to play it offline (there are several free ones out there. I use "FLV Player" and "Wimpy FLV Player")

    And lastly, LP videos can now be embeded on your own website, blog, MySpace page or whatever. The code to copy and paste is shown in this new section and will eventually be shown wherever videos can be played on LP).

    There's still work to be done with layout, video searching, video titles, etc, so this is definitely just a preview. But hopefully some of you can check it out, hopefully enjoy it and let me know what you think.

    Here's the URL...

I just embeded a video on a test blog on blogger.com and it worked. Maybe someone with more MySpace experience that I can tell you how it's done.
