The dream of ages realized: High-quality network news video in embeddable players for easy posting. No recording, no cutting, no uploading. It’s all right there for your easy posting convenience. What a super development. Yes sirree.

Ummmmmm, just out of curiosity: Anyone hiring? I have … no marketable skills, really. But I work hard!

Let’s also acknowledge that one man saw this coming. Well, one man on this site. Well, no, I’m sure Bryan saw it coming too. But I think we’d both agree that what NBC needs to do now is move away from this clip-based format to putting all of their content online and letting users edit what they want. The technology exists. Soon, soon.

The real beauty of it? It’s not just their hard news content that they’re embedding. Dude.
