oEmbed support

Buckybase can embed content from oEmbed providers such as Flickr.

Just write the Flickr page URL on a line by itself:

oEmbed Test
tag: Paris, Sunset

http://www.flickr.com/photos/stuckincustoms/194863333/

This is how the page looks in Buckybase:



The caption and author of the image are automatically retrieved.

Notes:
  • Currently only Flickr is supported, but it will be easy to add other oEmbed providers.
  • Please only post your own images and/or images that are appropriately licensed.
Update: Amazon product images are now supported via the marvellous oohEmbed. Simply paste an Amazon product URL into the page (sample). Thanks!
