acts_as_unvlogable: One plugin to rule them all

Thu, 08 Jan 2009 11:05:28 -0500

We are proud to announce our acts_as_unvlogable, a ruby on rails plugin that allows you easily get the title, thumbnail and embed code from video services such as youtube, vimeo, metacafe… The only thing you need to know is the video URL.

Let’s see an example:

To insert this video into this post the application needs to know the video title, the correct way to embed the video, the thumbnail… You can do it this way:

    @videotron = UnvlogIt.new("http://vimeo.com/1785993")
    @videotron.title => "Beached"
    @videotron.thumbnail => "http://bc1.vimeo.com/vimeo/thumbs/143104745_640.jpg"
    @videotron.embed_url => "httphttp://vimeo.com/moogaloop.swf? [...] "
    @videotron.embed_html(width, height) => "<embed [...]</embed>"
    @videotron.flv => "http://...flv"
    # all together :)
    @videotron.video_details(width, height) => {
                                            :title => ...,
                                            :thumbnail => ...,
                                            :embed_url => ...,
                                            :embed_html => ...,
                                            :flv => ...
                                          }

You can manage as easy as the previous example videos from:

And we are always searching new video services to include in.

Awesome :)

Something in common with Scarlett

It was already surprising when our friend esmuz told us that Unvlog was to be featured on Glamour magazine’s latest issue, but you should have seen our faces when we knew Scarlett Johansson was on the cover, and not because it gets us even closer to Kevin Bacon!!

Happy Birthday, Unvlog!!

The nice people at Alzado have published an interview of us today.

The article is in Spanish, but Google does a good job translating it.

We’ve added some more stuff to “your stuff”. Head over to your goodies page (right next to your profile) and set up your vlog to send updates to twitter everytime you post a video. Easy.

You will also find the widget showing your latest video, which you can put on your blog, myspace, etc, and the superuseful bookmarklet link for posting videos directly from any website.

Hello English!

Tue, 05 Aug 2008 04:59:35 -0400

Last Friday, the English version of unvlog.com was silently released. We are now more than happy of making it official through this post.

It’s been a looong way getting the whole site internationalized and then translating all the texts: we wanted the English version to keep the soul of the original one, and we’re pretty happy with the results. Luckily we got help from Irene with the latest corrections and suggestions. Thanks a lot!!

The Unvlog Party was a great success. If you are one of the hundredish attendees, thanks a lot for coming along; if you’re not, we saw many people holding cameras, so you’ll be able to see more shots like this when hangovers are gone. In the mean time, we’ve set up a Flickr group were anyone can post anything that has to do with the Unvlog World.

Fiesta means party

Thu, 03 Jul 2008 04:39:00 -0400

So, finally… tonight is the night. We’re having a party!

We are sure it’s going to be a great success, but before it happens, we’d like to thank everyone that has helped us out with the event, specially those who crafted videos to announce it.

And, of course a big thank you to Dani Rica (http://unvlog.com/sputnik) for creating the best flyer ever

See you all tonight!

New features and a bit of redesign

Tue, 01 Jul 2008 06:19:05 -0400

Hi all,

As some of you have noticed, we’ve done a bit of redesign on the video tools, so you’ll now see these nice chunky icons underneath your videos:

We’re also adding new features, probably the most useful being the ability of private messaging other users: just head over to their profile page, and look for the contact link:

Hope you enjoy these new little things!
