The gist of it is the hosts we currently allow provide iframes so they can serve videos without Flash because they use HTML5 instead (except if the user's browser is incapable of using anything but Flash).

Traditionally (meaning before HTML5 became accepted enough to be a widespread alternative to Flash), hosts that required you to use an iframe were just using Flash or sometimes even JavaScript. The fact is some (or maybe most) such hosts are still using those old methods.

The bottom line is regardless of host, *any* arbitrary code could be inserted into an iframe, including ads or malicious code. It wouldn't need to be something executed by the host directly; some hackers could infiltrate their system and silently inject bad code into their iframes. This would compromise any visitor who sees such an iframe in their browser everywhere on the Web.

It's not much at all an issue of liability I'm concerned about. I just don't want to play any part in helping people get screwed by baddies.

I don't really know of any hosts in particular, other than NPR I guess, that I'd want supported. Is the host required to have a Flash embed for it to work at all? I thought that for the few hosts you mentioned below were supported "Flash free".

I don't know the details of the security issues with iframes, but it seems that at worst VideoSift itself would be a conduit (or host) for malicious code - your own servers wouldn't be liable to attack from any embed, would they? In any case, it has to be something malicious used as an embed (knowingly or not), so at the very least, you probably want to limit iframe submission to, I don't know, silver stars and up?

The reason we've been so willing to accept the iframe hosts we accept now is they can readily be converted between iframe and Flash embeds given just a video ID.

We can consider accepting more iframes, maybe as part of VideoSift 5. Maybe make your recommendations there for new iframe hosts we should accept.

I, personally, am always hesitant to add iframes because they open a gateway onto videosift through which demons and goblins may spew forth.

Is there any chance of supporting more iframe hosts in the (near) future? I heard a great story about Igudesman & Joo tonight on NPR, and found a great video of them at the NPR studios performing, but it was iframe only (akaik).

There are more hosts than just YouTube that you can watch without Flash. In addition to YouTube and Vimeo, we support College Humor, Funny or Die, and Daily Motion.

Harrison Ford's a quarter Jewish--not too shabby!

So I guess Mel Gibson isn't one of your heroes.



You know what the coolest thing about being Jewish is? You can move to Israel if you want and become a citizen. (For realz, in case you didn't know.) That means when this country finally tires of your insufferable Ed-Hardy ass (and it WILL happen, sooner or later--probably sooner), you've got another place to flop. Sure, you'll probably have to do a short stint in the military to catch Palestinian mortars, but I'm sure it's no worse than the gun play in your trailer park.

Well, it's the festival of lights, so bust a cap from your Uzi for me. And tell Bar Refaeli to quit calling me. You wouldn't guess it, but she's a meshuggeneh through and through.

On a strange, illogical ruling, I am Jewish because my grandmother's vagina is Jewish making my mother's vagina Jewish. As we trickle down the Jewberry bush, I end up being a Jew. Now, the reason why this is illogical (other than the fact that both my mother and I are godless heathens), is the fact that my grandmother is Jewish by choice. Meaning, she doesn't really have Jew goo running through her spider veins. Although she is great at guilting and pronouncing words like how a cat would cough up a hairball, but I think that's all part of the training.

Then they're one of your people, the lost tribe of San Diego. I never knew you were a Joo. Happy Chanookah.

It's strange that kid has a Mathews jersey. A rookie for the Chargers. That, along with the terra cotta colored stucco topped with brick leads me to believe these jews are from San Diego.

I really feel that you should be the first sifter to post a video from JewTube.
