Amen. I find it hard to get upset about the takedown notice when I want to take it down for melting my eyes. Perhaps this is unfair of me, but there it is. Thanks for the clutter-free link.

That was a tech demo for popcorn.js, showing how you could replicate the popup video feel. The bubbles are overlaid on top of the html5 video and controlled through javascript.
