Instagram, the hugely popular photo sharing social network recently added support for video. Now you can shoot short video clip up to 15 second and share it will friends. There are total 13 filters available to give the video a retro look. Just like photos, videos are recorded in square aspect ratio (612×612 px resolution). Instagram videos can be shared on Facebook, Twitter and other social networking sites but there is no support of video embedding in web pages.

There are several unofficial ways to embed Instagram videos. In this article I’m going to show you how to embed Instagram videos and photos easily on any website or blog.
