Jquery-Oembed

This is a fork (with a lot of changes) of the jquery-oembed located at http://code.google.com/p/jquery-oembed/.

Instead of using oohembed or other such services it tries to embed the object natively without having to use some kind of local server. This project will happily use native oembed services when it can, however it also use other types of embedding whenever oembed is not possible.

This project tries to use embedding techniques in the following order of preference:

• oEmbed - JSONP available - i.e. flickr, meetup etc
• embedding (IFRAME/Object) based on URL information - i.e. youtube
• oEmbed - JSONP not Available - use YQL to correct - Ustream, viddler
• JSONP Api lookups Source - With HTML and CSS built in this project - github, Myspace, Facebook
• YQL Screenscape to get embedding details - BandCamp
• YQL Screenscrape - pastie
