can’t get it to work on mouseover here, not sure why. Looks like an awesome feature tho.

hmmm… mousing over the video doesn’t do anything.
maybe I have to use IE on a PC

Lol @ kev - nice point well made. Seconded as well - hovering over a video does nothing for me.
4. Bingo | September 27th 2007 @ 1:25 pm

nothin’ here either :), IE or FF
5. Chis | September 27th 2007 @ 1:25 pm

Hmm, I just sparked up IE and still nothing on mouseover?

maybe Microsoft love DaveN so much (and who doesn’t) that they have given him an easter egg.

Try the link again

Mouseover works for me, starts playing the video snippet. Nice feature, looks good and works well.
10. Kev | September 27th 2007 @ 2:27 pm

ok,
now it works. Microsoft must love me too!

Thats a very cool feature

Works fine for me with latest version of IE but won’t work in FF - really cool feature - try “youtube” suffix on your search. Cool for finding music vids etc.

Great find Dave. I just sphunn this. Try a search for Transformers. Gosh I love that movie!
13. Dylan Downhill | September 27th 2007 @ 5:09 pm

Yep - looks like an IE only feature, why am I not surprised - wonder if the EU could see this as anti-competitive and get even more money out of MS?

Still really cool feature!

love that little preview-play, nice touch.

It works for me in Firefox. I’m using 2.0.0.7
16. Sean Carlos | September 27th 2007 @ 8:48 pm

It works for me, using Firefox 2.0.0.6 on Linux. Frankly I’m surprised - not only that by the simplicity of the idea, but that Microsoft actually got cross-platform right (unlike Siliverlight, which stretches the meaning of cross platform…).

I also have to admit they are improving the translation tool [http://translator.live.com/]; initially it refused to work with sites which use the html “base” tag - found in many CMS platforms, etc. But, surprise, surprise, these sites are now accepted. Now if they could just perfect machine translation….

Totally off topic but preferred your old web2 type design for http://www.davidnaylor.co.uk this one seems too dim coloured. Bring back

Firewall Script

Firewall Script I'm going to do a full write up on this, but I have been testing this out on a blog, that's been hacked and DDOS a few times over the last 6 months, why do people feel I want to host their Malware, why don't I just update WP time and effort I guess

Anyway I had been looking for a solution that i can install on a shared box that that I didn't have root access on.

Anyway My test is coming to an end, and I going to try and score a deal on a multiple domain license, or even try and buy a lump of the company lol
