github gists (code snippits) can be shown by pasting the url to the gist, works for public and secret gists. This is the css for the list of embed links on the homepage of this blog. The list of links is provided by the Display Posts plugin.
The list is produced with the following shortcode:
[display-posts posts_per_page="100" orderby="title" order="ASC" wrapper="div" wrapper_class="embedlinks"]
After activation the Display Posts plugin.

The gif block which requires Jetpack to be turned on, allows you to search for a gif or paste in a url.
You can now embed Apple Keynote files stored in iCloud on Glow Blogs. Just share, allow access via a link and paste the link in to a glow blog post or page.
First you need to make sure the Jetpack plugin is activated and the shortcode module is turned on.
Paste the embed code into the Editor, the editor must be switched to Text mode:
After saving the iframe will change into a shortcode:
Just paste the share url into the blog editor.
Flickr embeds need the Jetpack plugin with the shortcode module activated.
The flickr Gallery above is embedded by pasting in the link to the page. As is the image below:
Unfortunately there is no way to adjust the size.
The Block editor provides a Flickr embed block, which gives a slightly larger version of the image. If you paste a flickr url into the editor it will add an embed block or you can add the flickr block in the usual way.
Unlike other google embeds, you need to activate a plugin for this one.
This plugin will allow you to embed Google Calendars in Posts pages and in a Widget.
To use it you need to activate the plugin:
Dashboard->Plugins
Click the Activate link under the Plugin’s name:
You then need to get the embed code from the Google Calendar you want to embed.
The Calendar must be public.
Visit Google Calendars and for the calendar you want to show click the popup and choose Share this Calendar:
Make the Calendar Public if you have not done so already:
Then go to the Calendar Details page and find the embed code:
You may want to click the customise link, which will allow you to change the size, colours etc. You might want to set the size to fit into your post.
Copy the embed code
Edit the post or page you want the Calendar to appear on and paste in the code:
The embed code will look like this the html is changed automatically into a shortcode:
[googlecalendar src="https://calendar.google.com/calendar/embed?height=400&wkst=1&bgcolor=%23FFFFFF&src=pvhq66ns53b1v83ppd0r5dgfk0%40group.calendar.google.com&color=%230F4B38&ctz=Europe%2FLondon" style="border-width:0" width="600" height="400" frameborder="0" scrolling="no"]
but will embed the calendar when the post is published:
You can also display a Calendar in a widget on the sidebar of your blogs. There is an example on the right of this page.
To add a widget you need the code again, it might be best to adjust the size by customising the code. Copy the code on the calendar site.
Add a Widget, Dashboard-Appearance-> Widgets, where you will find the Google Calendar Embed Widget.
You can drag the widget to a sidebar or click it to expand and add with a button:
Once it is added paste in the code:
Note the code is not changed to a shortcode.
The above code will produce the calendar widget.
You can embed photos stored in google Drive by pasting the sharable URL (see below for details)
