Hi Michael,

Video is always a challenge. My personal preference is for hosting video in
free file formats on the Wikimedia commons and users can download the
necessary codecs or browser  plugins to play back the files.

The challenge in finding a workable solution is that the freedom of many
educators is restricted because some employers do not provide
administration privileges for educators to download and install free
software. The flash player is not a good solution either. Looking forward
to wider adoption of HTML5 and native playback of open file formats.

Thanks for the tip for IPpad users -- you could also post this on the Q&A
forum.
