[videoblogging] MetaVid Archive

Hi all,

I just saw this post about http://www.metavid.org/

looks like an interesting resource

It is overseen by Warren Sack at UCSC and designed largely by his  
students Michael Dale and Aphid Stern. Its funded by the Sunlight  
Foundation and a grant from the NSF.

The site houses every second of video footage from the Senate and  
House floor since January 2006. All of it is searchable online by the  
text of the speech (scraped from the closed captioning of the CSPAN  
broadcast), the name of the speaker, the session. You can search, with  
a really simple and effective interface, not only for what a certain  
person said on a certian topic on a certain date, but also cross- 
referenced by some of the information the Sunlight Foundation offers —  
so, you could request any mention of “health care” by anyone recieving  
more than X dollars from pharmaceutical industry donors.
Any clip can be very simply embedded into a blog or website. You can  
jump to the stream of footage and indicate the start and finish point  
of the clip you want, and that can be added to a blog or website. You  
can help label clips for content, or even repair text errors in the  
closed caption transcript. You can combine clips (in an astoundingly  
nimble drag-and-drop interface) together, and put the montaged clip  
into your blog or website.

 Speaking of that backup system, I want excruciating details on THAT setup
 from Mr. Meade! It looked splendid. Think I tried to make a comment to that
 effect on the video but something wouldn't let me, then Firefox crashed.
 Argh.

Why is that?

Is there any reason not to use 480x272 across the board?
