4) Click the Facebook “SHARE” button to share on your Facebook wall. Be sure to add a comment to explain why you like this clip!
5) If you want to embed this clip to a blog or website, right click on the film title to open the clip in a new window or tab. In the new window or tab, look for the “Embed” button underneath the player, and click on it to get the embed code. (adrianflux.co.uk)
