At the same time it tests, if it makes sense to use Trails, based on a long single web page.

When opening this trail, my guiding question is: How can we use the video embed feature within marks.

I know, that there is a nice video introduction in YouTube by the CEO of Trailfire.
I would like to see it here too, embedded in a mark.

Somebody here, who wants to do it, giving an explanation within some mark(s) or even better: making a short video on how to embed videos?

How do I put a video clip in my mark?
I searched in the FAQ for "video" and found the recipe here, where I put the mark.
Now I am going to YouTube.

Now we are on YouTube and we search for TrailFire.

Now we found Demo07.
We right-click on the picture (or it's text,) and pick the option: Copy link location.

We get: http://youtube.com/watch?v=BRqDaA1TwbQ

How convenient, to save this in this mark for the next mark.

If  my work  is  interrupted,  another  peer  can  now  complete  it,  without  visiting YouTube  and   searching  for  the  link.

Please can somebody explain, what this statement means.

Where do we get this snippet?
Can somebody please insert here some link please? Thank you.

Anyhow, we have now a template YouTubeMovieTemplate from this faq.

We only need to replace the YouTubeMovieUrl appropriately.

In our case we have to replace the value and the src parameter  settings.

The actual snippet of code, you get from YouTube.com, contains a property setting wmode="transparent".

We insert the MovieUrl: http://youtube.com/watch?v=BRqDaA1TwbQ

in the following MovieTemplate:

Dear Diigos,  dear  TrailFire  peers,
Diigos can learn a lot from the Url-based design of FireTrail. This architecture promises to reach the level of the precursor annotation system of KaPingYee, where each WebPage can annotate each other. As a special case: Each annotation can be titled, referred to, googled, and be annotated by annother annotation. Congratulations to TrailFire for this architecture.

To both DiiGo and TrailFire programmers: please make the annotations like normal windows.
One click should  make them fullsize  windows,  another  click  minimize them  as  appropriate.
 
MayAllBeHappy

This is a DiiGo+TrailFire annotation.
