I've spent a weekend there, but it didn't seem that bad. :o) Of course I wouldn't walk barefoot in *any* cities with more than 8 million citizens! > I assume the quoting is done with linkubator.

Nope, if you want easy in and out points go with mefeedia's quoting tool. What I do is: - Download the movie I want to quote. - Trim the movie in Quicktime Pro and save (no re-encoding since the video is already compressed, yay!) - Upload the video quote raw file - Fire up linkubator and have it work its magic With mefeedia's quoting tool doesn't require you to host your own versin of the quoted file - it hits the original file every time. For my use I prefer hosting a copy of the quote myself. The response is faster, especially if the quote is not from the beginning of the video. Either way it's great to have options. Mine's just a rip-off of the mefeedia idea anyway. :o) And, yes, linkubator can create clickable "bugs" and all that jazz. With the usual consequences of using SMIL (like FireANT won't be able to pre-fetch the video, the video iPod will probably croak) - those I don't worry about. :o) - Andreas -- <URL:http://www.solitude.dk/> Commentary on media, communication, culture and technology. ------------------------ Yahoo!
