Let's see if it can support multiple embeds and/or TED embeds on the same page

What strikes me about this is that it seems to bring a different kind of 3-D to the table than the stereoscopic or simple rendered kind.  The drawback, of course, is that you only have one person who can experience this at a time, but if you have somebody sitting in front of a computer screen(which tends to be one person watching the monitor, or playing a one-player video game), then it's not an issue.

What I'd be interested to see here is whether this video posts properly from blogger



Here's the thing I notice here: look how much time is spent distracting you from actually directly interacting with him.  You might have some nice little AI tricks regarding him noticing or taking interests with things you do, but you only get real interaction after having been narratively tunnelled into a certain conversation that has certain social expectations attached to it

But I do have to say it's a neat trick.  But is it going to seem all that neat as others develop this kind of interaction more extensively?

I have to wonder, is this just a problem when dealing with embeds?

Or does the blogwriter program just screw things up when it deals with embedded video?
