[wp-edu] Video

[James Wanless]

Hi all;

We occasionally host them ourselves, depending on the nature of the
content.  Most of the times (and almost exclusively on our Wordpress
install) we have them upload to YouTube and then grab an embed code or use
Anarchy Media Plugin or, since WP3 came out they can just embed directly.

If you're looking for a simple media plugin Anarchy rocks.

James
