Hi all, I am in contact with Ken Harrenstien from Google/YouTube about joining our efforts. As I tried finding out more about what he does, I came across this blog post: http://googlevideo.blogspot.com/2008/06/closed-captioning-search-options.html . Ken was involved with implementation of a time offset scheme into YouTube videos using URI fragments!!! The scheme is used for search results when searching captions on videos. He posted an example of such a search in the blog post - make sure you turn on "list view" in google video search to see the URIs: http://video.google.com/videosearch?q=%22that%27s+a+tremendous+gift%22&sitesearch=# Then you'll get a link called "Start playing at search term" and the following link: http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=3047771997186190855&ei=MCH-SNfJD5HS2gKirMD2Dg&q=%22that%27s+a+tremendous+gift%22#50m16s . Notice how the temporal fragment is specified through "#50m16s" ? I'm sure Ken would be an awesome addition to our group and help implement whatever we come up with in YouTube. Cheers, Silvia.
