Cool use case! Great post!

I'm shocked by how few companies, especially those creating dev tools, offer clear tutorials showing you how to actually use their products (that go beyond the vanilla API docs). Obviously you should encourage people to use your tools in any way they want, and even devise new ways to use them, but offering some clear, concise suggestions/examples is so incredibly useful.

Way to go embed.ly!

Agreed, great work embed.ly; it's a pity there's no way of even knowing they have a blog if you navigate to http://embed.ly/ though. Hence, this detailed blog post is basically undiscoverable unless you already knew it existed.

Twitter seems to be having search issues with OR statements and filters. They are only returning a limited amount of results. I'll update when it's worked out.
