Some observations, since nothing is as easy or as good as it seems.
(1) It works BUT it puts it in with no title and the default category.
(2) I’m not sure how this hits your performance.
(3) I’m not sure how this adds to YOUR value. You could just put a link. In my case I’m running a “plog” (i.e., a personal weblog that whines about whatever interests me) and I have no illusions of fame, fortune, continued employment, or my “brand”.
You might care (i.e., be careful of what you host or refer to). It becomes YOUR digital dirt.
I wonder that a screw up on youtube could reflect badly upon you. You see a picture of puppies. Include it in your blog. YouTube screws up. You now have animal porn on your blog. How do you explain that in your interview.
I might want to host some of my training videos I make for fun. And, display them for fun. (I don’t have an ego problem. I star in all my own videos. Making it into the horror genre!)
It presents an interesting oppty?
