Embedding YouTube Videos into PPT

Thanks to some fabulous articles on the web, I was able to embed YouTube videos into PPT - thought I'd share.

For offline viewing (i.e., when you can't get Internet access)

1. Download the video you want using the free YouTube down loader software - you must install this software on your computer

2. Use the same down loader software to convert the file into a .WMV file (Windows Media Player - if using a PC)
3. Use the Insert Media option in PPT to insert the movie

Embedding videos for online viewing is a bit more complicated as you need to work with the Developer tab within PPT which may not even appear as an option within PPT. The following link explains this option really well: http://www.brighthub.com/computing/windows-platform/articles/9698.aspx
