Inspiration

A now defunct site a friend once showed me

What it does

The page takes a video ID from the user for a Youtube video. Then, several Youtube players are displayed, filling the page, and presenting the video with itself. However, each player is slightly delayed from the previous one.

How I built it

Apache hosts the page. Javascript to interact with the Youtube iframe player API.

Challenges I ran into

Taking advantage of Javascript's asynchronous features

Accomplishments that I'm proud of

That what I have (approximately) does what I intended

What I learned

Got more familiar with Javascript, and gleaned a little knowledge of Apache

What's next for Video in Canon

To properly take a single video stream from Youtube instead of opening several at once. It's a more elegant solution.
