Video category, yay!

``[![IMAGE ALT TEXT](http://img.youtube.com/vi/YOUTUBE_VIDEO_ID_HERE/0.jpg)](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YOUTUBE_VIDEO_ID_HERE "Video Title")``

For other video sites you can use a screenshot of the video as an image preview.

This post is outdated.  Simply post a youtube link in the body and it will automatically detect and embed it.

Thanks for posting this, it would be nice if we could actually play the embedded videos on the site rather than linking out!
