hi guys, I hope this is the right forum, if not apologies!
I'm trying to post youtube videos of a talk I gave at the CBI Summer conference in Dublin this year. The talk is approx 46 minutes long, so I cut the video into five sections. Is there a way to make certain that a person watching one section can automatically go to the next? I know very little about youtube ( or indeed the internets!) and this doesn't seem to be covered in the help sections (though I may just not know what to ask!)

There's playlists on YouTube. I don't know how a poster sets them up, A viewer can always create their own playlist and string whatever videos they want into a continuous play mode.

This might help. Seems you can create a "public" playlist.

Thanks Alleycat ( and so sorry for posting in the wrong place) OK. So I tried that and I now have a list of the videos on my home page - I don't think they're linked if someone just stumbles across them while browsing, though, and I've no clue how to do that ( except that they all share the same tags? Would that help?) I guess I just have to hope folks will click on the 'who posted this video' link and go to my youtube home page. Thanks so much for the help!!!

As an aside, I notice only one of the vids shows up in a net search if I google the tag words. I find that a bit strange!
