FB+VIDEO+EMBED
Facebook is now a very large social network as you know each and every person using facebook to connect with yours friends. Today the topis is such on FB . You know Videos are great. They are so much faster than other words, and so much better than images. People watch and share videos all the times. It is estimated that on YouTube, approximately 2 billion videos are being watched every day!!! & while you can easily share YouTube videos and embed them anywhere on the web, the same can't be said of Facebook videos. Facebook is an another large platform where millions videos are being watched and shared daily. But sadly, Facebook does not provide any embed codes for sharing a video on a blogs.

That leaves us with a high strategy problem. Neither can be you share a video that you like on your blog, nor can people, who are not on Facebook, see a video you want them to see. But don't worry. As always, there is a solution to almost every problem & for this problem, there are two. So let's see how you can embed Facebook videos to share on your blog.
There are two major ways you can embed Facebook videos anywhere on the webs. One is the short way, and the other is the long one. One involves copying and pasting some code on your blogs, and the other involves downloading a Facebook videos. Let's see how that can be done.

Adding a Facebook Video to your site :

This one is really simple !!! Ever Facebook video has an id, as shown in the image belows. You will need a video id for this tricks.

All you need to do this, take the id of a video (for example '956977232793'), and paste it in the code given below. Replace the word 'ID' with the video ID.
<object width="500" height="281" >
   <param name="allowfullscreen" value="true" />
   <param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always" />
   <param name="movie" value="http://www.facebook.com/v/ID" />
   <embed src="http://www.facebook.com/v/ID" type="application/x-shockwave-flash"
      allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="500" height="281">
   </embed>
</object>

That's it!!! Done You can now now embed this code into Blogger or WordPress HTML editor and see the video embedded there!!!1

Downloading Facebook videos :

2nd Another way to embed Facebook videos is to first download them, and then either upload them on your blog, or on YouTube from where you can be easily embed them. This methods is both better and worse that the previous method. Worse because it will take some time to download & upload the videos. And that video might be copyrighted, which means you can be charged with Plagiarism or worse.

But the good part is, that video isnt going anywhere unless you say so. When you link to FB video, it is subject to its presence on Facebook. The owner might choose to delete it, or make it private. In that case, the video will no longer be accessible on your blogs. Best download it first.

To download a Facebook video, simply copy its URL from the address bar of yours browser. Then go to  the Facebook Video Downloader, and paste the URLs there. It will then give you a direct link to the video. Right click on the video and select on "Save Target As" (On IE) or "Save Link as" (On Chrome). This will be download the video for you. You can now edit the video or upload it anywhere you want.
