Poll question: Youtube Video Posting Ability in the Lounge
It'd be nice to post vids here just like we can post vids in the political video section

1. I asked this two day ago. greatauntoftriplets relayed the request to Skinner
He said that DU has no plans to enable videos outside of the Political Video Forum. Maybe if we ask again nicely our Admin will consider it.

Please, please, pretty please?

2. Maybe we need to do a separate Lounge fundraiser?
If "The Lounge" can pay for video embedding priviledges?

4. Embedding YouTube videos doesn't eat up significant additional bandwidth.

They're still hosted by YouTube.

There isn't a cost factor, the bigger concern is more likely that we'd all start posting weird shit to prank each other. Which is pretty likely, I think.

5. I know it's not the hosting cost...
... cos Youtube would do it. But it would just demonstrate the power of the Lounge - if "The Lounge" raised a chunk of change for DU.
