seesmic sidebar v0.1 released!
In true open source style, I’m releasing early and often so here’s v0.1 of the seesmic sidebar - save it somewhere then double-click on it to install in your browser of choice:
Click here to download seesmic sidebar v0.1
At the moment it lists the latest 50 videos and you can refresh whenever you like. You can also select to see all languages or just one, e.g. ‘en’ for English only - it will hide other languages out of that 50.
To play in the internal sidebar player, click either the thumbnail or title. There’s an ‘flv’ link to download the flv file of the video. There’s also a ’seesmic’ link which will open up a new tab in your browser and play it within seesmic, although currently it doesn’t work the first time - you will need to click the toolbar icon twice to reload the tab (or CTRL+Shift+S twice) then it will work from then on. As soon as I work that one out I’ll fix it!
I’ve submitted the extension to the mozilla site so you should be able to download it from there soon too. It works for Firefox, Flock, and all OSs. Feedback and ideas more than welcome, just post a comment or email me at (steve@purkiss.com) steve (at) purkiss (dot) com.
Here’s a little demo, sorry about the bad graphics:
Sweet!!

Absolutely awesome, Steve! I expect this will instigate a higher Seesmic postcount on my part.

Hi Jay,
It works with FF3 with a little tweak:
1. Type “about:config” in the address bar it will bring up a list of configuration settings.
2. Right click and select “New”->”Boolean”.
3. Type in “checkCompatibility” and select “False” as the value.
4. Restart the browser - it will work now!
