How do you post a video? I can’t figure out how to do it.

Copy the web address link to your video, assuming it’s either uploaded through youtube or vimeo. Then when you go to make your post simply hit the button on the bottom row of options, above the emoticons, labeled Insert Hyperlink. That will bring up two (url)(/url) looking texts, simply paste your link to your video between the two (url)(/url) and thats all there is to it. I believe there is a different way to actually embed the video but this is as far as my knowledge goes. Good luck, let me know if you need me to explain it more clearly.

-Cheers
