Viper’s Video Quicktags for WordPress

Tired of copying and pasting the embed HTML from sites like YouTube into posts on your site? Well then this plugin is for you.Just simply click one of the new buttons that this plugin adds to the write screen (rich editor included) and then paste the URL that the video is located at into the prompt box — easy as that. You can fully configure how the videos are displayed (width, height, alignment on the page) and much more. Best of all, it won’t break your page’s (X)HTML validation.

Currently supports these video sites:

  • YouTube
  • Google Video
  • IFILM
  • Metacafe
  • MySpace

As well as these file types:

  • QuickTime (MOV, etc.)
  • Generic video files (AVI, MPEG, WMV, etc.)
  • Flash Video Files (FLV)

Not sure is anyone else rean into this problem, but after the last WordPress upgrade, embeding Youtube video just did not work. Quick Google search, and wham, WP-Plugin solution. Talk about nice, the buttons and everything are right there in the Write Post window. Very nice!

Hail is falling…

Doppler Radar - HailstormOk, who in my local area pissed off God? I was doing the typical rain and stuff this morning, and that pass without event. However, just 10 minutes ago, thunder and lightning…and now hail. in fact it is coming down so hard that it is competing with the TV audio.

Picture is a shot of the local doppler radar. Guess what color I am in?

Thankfully I am inside. :-D
