I plan on using Blogger or Google Sites for digital portfolios this year. I also intend to upload videos from my Costa Rica trip in November via iPhone to my class blog.
The only problem is that at our school these videos won't load on Blogger or Google Sites (via Google Docs). Yes, you can upload video now to Google docs.
But, all my students see is a white box (no Web Sense message). I brought this to the attention of DIIT and they are looking into it. To view what I am talking about go here:

Background.
I will use Zamzar.com do download the video from YouTube.com and then upload to Blogger for my students to view. I has worked in the past. I will create my own videos with iPhone or my Sony Cybershot and upload from my laptop as well. It all works everywhere but in school.
Any ideas?

How this can work...
First of all I welcome your suggestions about how to make the mission of this blog and group a success.
We will use the blog posts for introducing new ideas, concerns, requests for help.
However, we have a Google Group that will be great for in-depth explorations, file sharing and archiving of discussion, that a blog cannot do.
