Illustrating in-this-site embedding of google videos
08-March-2006
Alan and Jamie Brown have been doing a great job of posting video snippets on workplace learning. They have been posting them to the google video service, and linking to them from the lifelong learning / workplace learning area of this site. Using google video to host the video is in the "data outside": spirit of web2.0 - it lets goggle-video concentrate on providing excellent uplaod and display facilities while leaving our own NGRF software to concentrate on what it does best. However, this does not mean that the video content cannot be thumbnailed - or indeed played - within the NGRF site itself.
Google video offers a 'new' feature whereby you can grab the html code needed to embed a player for your content in your own site. I've included that embed code below so as to illustrate the feature.
This clip provides some background to the Sealants company, which is a family-owned business, about thirty years old. They are the number one UK supplier of putty (it is primarily used to hold single glaze glass to the frame) and were originally almost completely focused on this market. However, the sons of the founder recognised that this was a mature and declining market and so developed new products to satisfy the putty substitution market. For example they now also supply Butyl Strip (most commonly used in wooden-framed double glazing) especially to the 'industrial leaf market' and Silicon products (most often used as trims for the edge of bathrooms and sinks). As a result, they are now a reasonably-sized and growing SME, employing around a hundred people and turning over circa ten million pounds.
