Youtube videos - embed or link.

I suspect I might be placing more videos in my postings. For reasons I don't clearly understand, I'm not keen on seeing embedded links on my friends page, and so I've tended not to do that and put links to the youtube page. I suspect this is partly because I'm an aged hacker who can remember NCSA Mosaic and used to surf with images off. But what really matters is what everyone else thinks, so...

I like links. Mainly as I tend to skim through my friends page ayt high speed, reading short entires and opening any links and longer entries in seperate tags to read later.
