A sample text widget

Etiam pulvinar consectetur dolor sed malesuada. Ut convallis euismod dolor nec pretium. Nunc ut tristique massa.

Nam sodales mi vitae dolor ullamcorper et vulputate enim accumsan. Morbi orci magna, tincidunt vitae molestie nec, molestie at mi. Nulla nulla lorem, suscipit in posuere in, interdum non magna.

Adding Audio & Video to your blog

For security reasons, this installation of WordPress doesn’t let you upload embed a media player into posts.

AUDIO
Use freeware Audacity for Windows or Mac or Apple’s Garage Band to record a sound file. You can upload your file to SoundCloud.com and create an HTML link to it, like this Demo sound file.

AUDIO narrated SlideShow
You can upload a series of images as a PDF to Slideshare.netand then
upload an .MP3 audio file that you sync to create a narrated slideshow.

You can then embed your slideshow into your WordPress sidebar, using the WordPress.org embed code in HTML. Here is a narrated slideshow I created using Powerpoint and GarageBand:  Univ. of Oregon Architecture Curriculum.

VIDEO
Easier: use mac’s iMovie to create a video from slides, then upload it to YouTube. Create a New Post and in editing mode hit the “HTML” tab and then preface the listing with “httpv://” instead of the usual “http://” and it comes in naturally. I’m looking for a similar way to do audio. Here is a fun one:
