Google owns both Blogger and YouTube. Since they are Google, they have made it streamlined and easy for us to post YouTube videos to this group blog.
It takes some setting up but once it's done you can post to this blog directly from the YouTube page. Fuck you, middle man!
Connect Your Accounts
1) Sign in to YouTube using your Gmail login here. If you already have a YouTube account, you can connect your existing account to your Gmail as well. PS: Make sure it is your own YouTube user name and not the LOTPQ group user name.
2) Go to this link to add a blog to your account.
3) Choose "Blogger" as your Blog Service, then enter your username/password (which should be the same as your Gmail login).
4) Give it a second to retrieve your information. It should only take about 15 seconds, so may I suggest this video while you wait?
5) It should show Ladies of the PQ as a blog. Click the check box next to it, and click Add Selected Blogs.
Now you can post videos directly to the blog.
Posting Videos Directly To The Blog
1) Go to any video's YouTube page -- may I suggest this one??
2) There is a Share tab beneath the video, with buttons for Email, MySpace -- click the little link that says "(more share options)".
3) You'll see a "Post to Blog" area appear, with Ladies of the PQ as an option in the pulldown menu. Fill out the title and text you want to appear with the video, click Post to Blog.
4) You have now made all your friends better people. Go to http://ladiesofthepq.blogspot.com/ and bask in your golden discovery.

I just tried to add a video and don't see it yet, but maybe it just takes time. I'll categorize it properly once it shows up!
