As I am getting ready for my trip to Hong Kong, I thought it would be fun to publish some videos / vlogs documenting my trip. I have all of the hardware (Logitech QuickCam Fusion webcam and my Panasonic Lumix FZ30) / software (Camtasia Studio) to make it happen, but I needed an easy way to include it on my site.
A quick search of the wordpress.org site led me to a pretty elegant solution. It leverages the feature-rich Flash Video Player created by Jeroen Wijering and a really slick Flash Video Plugin for WordPress that integrates Jeroen’s player to simplify the process of adding a flash video to a WordPress post. The plugin was created by Joshua Eldridge @ mac-dev.net. Josh has a pretty cool photo gallery plugin igallery that looks pretty sweet as well and something I may try out.
If I installed everything correctly, you should be able to see the flash video player below. To play the included video click the play button or more simply just click the video player screen.

Look for more videos from me as I try to document my adventure to Hong Kong in words, pictures and videos.
