Unfortunately, it's hard to reliably determine the original photo link for YFrog. The best we can do is link to the iPhone version.

Thanks for that! I'll add your extension to the Consumers list the next chance I get.

> It would be great if you can double tap on any location and it will reverse geocode the postal code.

Another nice idea that shouldn't be to hard to implement. Will also help when you are indoors and can't get a good location fix.

> You can try selling your project to Comfort Delgro

I'm not too good at that! Already got in trouble with a different transport company for my other project ;-)

Didn't know people use Cabbie so much that they need a backup feature ;-)

Seriously though, this is a good idea. I'll try to implement this for the next release along with some other stuff I had planned. A bit busy these days but will hopefully have something done by end of June.

Adding support for an oEmbed provider is trivial. Please file a 'enhancement' issue at http://oohembed.googlecode.... when your provider is ready and I'll get it done.

Seems to work with my test URL above. If you see a problem repeatedly, please file a bug with the problem URL at http://oohembed.googlecode....

Man, I'm no artist/designer. That icon took as much effort as writing all the location based code :-)

If someone can help out with a better icon, ideally something that adheres to Android 2.0's Icon Design Guidelines, I'll be very thankful!

Are you encoding the request url correctly? i.e. replacing # with %23 before calling oohembed?

Re: oohEmbed.com

Hey, thanks for the heads-up! oohEmbed should not be affected since I
already use Youtube's oEmbed endpoint but I'll double-check just to be
sure.

No way! Liked the quote just 'cos the 'quit & restart vi all the time' observation is so true :)

Can you file a bug report with some example URLS from MySpace and the
expected oembed responses for them?

Re: oohEmbed.com

There was some discussion on the oEmbed mailing list about supporting URL Templates but nothing came out of that. But if you think this is something oohEmbed should support, patches are welcome :-)

Hi Mark.

Thanks for your feedback!

AFAIK, ComfortCab's SMS booking service doesn't work with just GPS
co-ordinates. So I've to convert those into an address that the
booking service can understand. Presently, I use Google's Reverse
Geocoding service to fetch addresses near/around a location (i.e.,
your GPS location) and those are the addresses you see on the map. So
even if you arbitrarily point to a location, you won't get an address
different from those already shown. Does that make sense?

Did you take a look at the new Info function? The Info dialog has
ComfortCab's booking number that you can just touch to call!

I'll think about adding numbers for other cab companies.

Seems to work for me.

That belongs to the jquery-oembed project. Please file a bug with them over here: http://code.google.com/p/jq...

Which code is this referring to? Are you sure you are talking about oohEmbed code and not about a separate project that uses the oohEmbed service?

oohembed is acting as a pure proxy for the Viddler oembed endpoint.
Please ask Viddler to correct this error. Here's their oembed page:

Posted my reply to the ticket on Google Code.

Re: oohEmbed.com

To solve that, I'd have to return HTTP 200 header with an 'error message' inside the response body. That, though, would break oembed spec.

See if this helps: http://stackoverflow.com/qu...

Re: oohEmbed.com

antrix — Sat, 22 Aug 2009 22:38:18 -0000

It does return a proper HTTP 404 error code in the response header and
jQuery should handle that. The response body could be anything as per
oembed.com spec. If you aren't getting a 404 response header, let me
know.

Open a new issue on the oohembed google code site and attach a patch :-)

In what sense? I thought twidroid is just a twitter client. Is it an oembed provider or a media publisher?

Re: oohEmbed.com

antrix — Tue, 28 Jul 2009 10:34:40 -0000

That's not happening. People tend to send all kinds of urls to oohembed, whether they expect the url to represent a 'embeddable media' resource or not. It would be too expensive to go and fetch each and every such url and parse it.
