TOOLS?
Tools recommended:
- RealPlayer - Downloading videos from YouTube and Converting them into other formats (e.g. wmv).
- Format Factory - Converting videos to any other video format you can imagine.
If you are using PowerPoint 2003 (or 2010) no worries, because inserting videos into PowerPoint is as easy as toasting...Insert > Movies and Sounds > Movie from File (2003)...
You might also want to check out my previous article entitled 2 Juicy Ways to Insert YouTube Videos into PowerPoint, but I believe the tips shared above is even juicier. Trust me!
Finally, if you have a cooler or more efficient way of doing it for free, please share it with us. Now that would be AWESOME :)
