Solid work, Lucky. This'll make embedding vids so much easier.

*quality work as usual lucky.

Awesome feature. My only suggestion: it would be nice if the "Close VideoSift Submit" button would go away after I navigate away from the submission page (ie. I've either submitted the video, or decided not to submit and am browsing the rest of the site).

Totally wish we could do anything that would allow you to close the overlay from within the overlay, but it's unfortunately just not within the realm of possibility due to security restrictions in all modern web browsers.

I misread. Making that button go away alone would be confusing because the URL in your web browser will stay the same (for the video host page). I suppose we could do something like add another special button like "Browse VideoSift" that could launch VS standalone, but that's probably overkill and will add too much clutter I'm guessing. (If lots of people disagree, though, let us know and maybe we'll make a change.)

Is it just me, or does anyone else not trust this because they know not how it works.

What is it I am adding here ? a program ? code ?

I fear what I do not understand, despite the benefit of what is proposed.

I like it. A lot.

javascript in a bookmark is called a bookmarklet.

my favorite bookmarklet makes cluttered websites easier to read. By putting the text in a column, then changing the text size so you can read easier.

Very nice Lucky. Great addition to the site.

That's awesome.

It broke for me in this though:

Hey Lucky, my booklet thingy disappeared from my toolbar. When I went to add it again, it wouldn't let me.

I put it in my bookmarks, but I really liked it on my toolbar.

I use Firefox. Is it a Firefox problem?

That sounds really weird. Everything's fine in Firefox for me. The old bookmarklet is there and dragging it up there adds another one. Have you installed something new in your browser recently maybe?

Anyone else experiencing something weird like this?

Oh. You know, I think the problem is Yahoo Toolbar. It has gotten all weird.

I'll just suffer with it the way it is. It was a great thingy, Lucky, well designed for me. I'll miss it.

I can do it via bookmarks though.
