You have lots of choices when it comes to adding various media to your web site. You can add video in a variety of formats, sound and even 3D panoramas. Carefully chosen multimedia can make an incredible experience for your visitors. On the other hand, poorly done media can make them head for the back button.

One of the problems with most of these choices is the often immense size of the files. Any WAV file (a type of sound) longer than a few seconds is going to be huge, causing the reader to wait for the file to download. Video files get even larger, sometimes causing huge delays. And 3D (VRML) images can take a long time to download even over cable modem or DSL.
