  I have the basic free wordpress.com blog and want to upload a video.
  How do you upload videos when the only allowable upload formats don’t include any video formats?
  The video i want to upload is only 2.24mb.

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  You can upload videos directly to your WordPress.com blog with a VideoPress upgrade. You can find full details at:

  We also support embedding from various third-party video sites like YouTube and Vimeo.

  thanks for the information, and i will most likely upgrade to videopress and storage.
  one other question… the wordpress app for my blackberry tour has an “add video” function, does that not work at all?

  @jakebower
  I don’t have the answer to your question. What I do know is that there is a separate forum for the blackberry app at http://blackberry.forums.wordpress.org/
  Hope this helps :)

  That function won’t work, if ever, until you buy the upgrade.
