> For members of YouTube Group GETTIN' WET 2 (and for those interested in joining):

> YouTube, several months ago, eliminated the "add video to group" option, in addition to many other changes to their site, many which I think have made the site weak.

> It is no longer group friendly, especially for a group moderator.

> You CAN add videos to GETTIN' WET 2, but you have to now manually copy and paste the URL for each video, one at a time.

> HERE's HOW:
> 1 You first need to be sure you are signed onto the group (you have to join the group in order to be able to post). Here is the URL:
> www dot youtube.com/group/gettinwet2
> (of course 'dot' really is '.' )

> 2 THEN do a YouTube search for wet-related videos you want to post to the group but you will need to copy and paste EACH URL for every video.
> Use key words like wet clothes, pushed in pool, pool party, etc. There are many words for pool in other languages as well (Pool = piscina, piscine, alberca, plouf, etc.) This could be time consuming of course.

> 3 If you have more than one to post, keep a list of each video's URL, which is shown on each video's page, and PASTE THEM in an excel file or in an e-mail page, for example, so you have 1 place to copy & paste them to.

> 4 THEN you have to go back to the group's main page and hit the "submit a video" button near the upper right corner. A window then pops up where you enter in the URL, and a comment, if you want to. This is when you refer back to your e-mail or excel page where you saved the URL.

> You have to do this for EVERY vid. There IS a way to bulk load videos but I don't know how to do this just yet.

> This is why in the original Gettin Wet group there were about 4000 vids and Gettin Wet 2 only has 1000 or so. No one seems to know how to post to groups anymore and if they do, it's very time consuming, especially if you have several vids to post.

> Please try to submit vids this way- give it a try. (and please stay within the group's guidelines posted on the front page)

> Would be cool to get back to 4000+ again. There's a lot out there.
