Hey there!
This is your first official story on Prezly – congratulations! Take a moment to scroll through and see some of the features now at your fingertips :)
The little green plus that pops up when you click in the editor is the star of the show. It makes it wildly simple to embed anything you want into your story with just a quick copy-paste – whether it's images, websites, tweets, podcasts, even livestreams \ud83d\ude31
Animated gifs work a treat...
As do videos, like this one!
Go on, hit Return on the next line and try embedding something yourself :)
How was that? Easy, right??
