As I said, there are many kind of files that you can publish on your blog and it is often the same technique: finding a hosting page, logging in, uploading the file, copying the embed code and pasting it on a new post.
But, let's see in more detail what kind of files you can publish and where they can be hosted. These are the best hosting pages I have found:
Word files: Scribd.com (Box.net, eSnips.com, ...)
Pdf files with pictures (Beautiful books and magazines): Issuu
Powerpoint: Slideshare.net
Audio and player to embed on your blog: Esnips (GoEar, BooMp3)
Audio and link to your blog: Filefactory
Podcasts (Audio files you and other people can subscribe to): Podomatic
Video: YouTube
Picture albums: Picasa, Flickr
Video with questionnaire or subtitles: ESL Video, Yappr
Photo Slideshows: Slide.com
Animated avatars: Voki, Lively
Mind maps: Bubble.us
Games and nice graphics: Classtools.net
Forms and Spreadsheets for your surveys (and place for many other kind of files,such as documents, presentations, spreadsheets or html files, Hot Potatoes' exercises): google.com
Questionnaires: mystudiyo.com
Cartoons: Kandoo
Animated books: mape.org.uk (very similar to Powerpoint, but with nice ideas to use)
More for surveys and graphics: surveymonkey.com and graphic.org
Interactive presentations with pictures, images and audio: Voicethread
There are some things which are more difficult to embed and you may prefer to simply create a link to the hosting page. For example, hot potatoes games (without picures) can be uploaded to Scribd or Box.net and accessed by means of a link on the blog.
