VImeo allows you to upload more lengthy videos, whule YouTube limits you to apx. 10 min. Vimeo can be configured so your videos appear on iTunes as video podcasts. If you know even basic html and can recognize the height and width dimensions, even the nonVimeoPlus version allows you to modify the player, at least in terms of how big the embedded player is on your blog/website and which frame to use as its standby screen.
