This is a very convenient way to upload and share your photos, videos, documents, music, and any other media file.

Media hosting services provides free uploading and sharing services. an example for that is YouTube for sharing videos, Picasa and flickr for sharing photos, and Google document for sharing various types of documents.

After using the easy tools provided by these services, you can set up your preferences and you will be given a URL or a code. you can copy and paste this code anywhere to share your media. You can always change your setup and get the code.

Some services such as Google give you access to multiple services through one single acount, one gamil account can give you free access to YouTube, Picasa, and Google Documents.

Below is an example of uploading an album to Picasa and posting it:

1- Go to Picasa.com , click on Picasa web album and sign in using your gamil account.

2- Now you can view and edit your existing albums or you can upload new album by clicking the Upload icon3- Click on Link to This Album, this will give you three options, to paste the link into an email or IM , copy the first code and paste it in the email, to paste as HTML into a website ( like your post) copy and paste the second code into the website or the psot. It even gets better , if you want to post it as a slide show (as we did in this website).

To insert slideshow into your post click on Embed Slidshow, that will take you to a page in which you setup the size and format of the slideshow. Copy the code in the yellow box and paste it into you post.

Almost the same procedure is followed by other services, please refer to the help pages of the specific service you want to use for more assistance.
