blip.tv, and a variety of other third party hosts. It is also common  
to embed the video and host it yourself, using vPIP, Embed QuickTime  
(google them) and a variety of other plugins (the two listed work with  
wordpress)

rather than wordpress page i is more commonly done with a post, if  
you're trying to video blog


 Also, what's the ballpark length of text on the wordpress page? 300
 words? 700words? Too short, and it seems the blog is hardly worth
 reading, too long and the attention fades.

no answer, depends on quality of your writing. there are exceptional  
blogs of ver brief posting, and ditto for very long. Exceptional here  
is in the eye of the beholder - with the long tail et al you don't  
have to aggrandise/aggregate audience share to be successful (unless  
you're treating this as an old media space, then yes, brief, mention  
sex liberally, and so on) :-)



 I intend putting up footage of laughter clubs in action, discussing
 what produces fake laughing vs real laughing. There's already quite a
 lot of videos of laughter clubs on youtube (also under laughter  
 yoga.)


if you want to repost youtube stuff then you can embed it into yor  
wordpress blog on a post by post basis. give credit where appropriate.

Usuff, for newbies, I find Blogger is simpler to setup video and text
using Blip as the video host. Blip will post the video to Blogger for
you if you set it up that way. You can always change to Wordpress later.

Would there be other ways to do it?
