In keeping with my late catch-up, I've decided to reference last week's St. Patrick's day festivities through my required YouTube video post. I'm not sure what to make of this, but Alabama may be more Irish than I ever thought...

Prezi-changy
After a long hiatus, I have returned to catch up on 23 things!
This morning I tackled Prezi, which I had never encountered before. My library computer didn't seem to jive with the Prezi site, and insisted on a flash player upgrade before I could edit a project. Unfortunately, I was prevented from upgrading said flash by reasons not entirely clear to me.
But rest assured, my laptop saved the day! (Is it because it's a mac? Probably.) I was able to edit a project, but one more snag popped up: My youtube video also did not play after I inserted it!
After a quick google troubleshoot, I learned that some videos are not able to be embedded within other sites. To find out if a youtube video is 'embeddable,' you can click the 'embed' button underneath the video you're watching. If it says, 'Embedding disabled by request,' it won't run in Prezi.
For those interested in the finished project, check it out here!
