I'm going to request that we not turn this into an iPhone
drool-support group, please? (for the sanity of everyone else? :))
The only reason I bring it up is for accessibility, and how to make
sure the most people can see the content that's provided -- even if
they can't view it directly on their PC for whatever reason.
To get the link, just look at the address bar -- the 11-character code
that follows the '?v=' up to the following &, or '/v/' to the end, is
the only variant part.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zc1Js9P3urwhttp://www.youtube.com/v/Zc1Js9P3urware equivalent. (not that this particular video link has anything to
do with Croquet, I just think it's a neat expression of the concept of
'programming patterns' in pop culture.)
