Along with what ghacks posted, I've found that sharing got cooler.
No need, for the one shared with, to download media files to play them.

This is new to me, maybe it's always been there, but I don't recall.

It worked on Facebook anyway...

Let me know if you can just play this video or not.

Thanks 40hz, I think quicktime does my in browser stuff.
Using FF8.
I just never get around to changing it.
Here's some others you want to see handled.

Also, I believe some pic sharing sites are doing videos as well.
ImageShack, PhotoBucket....maybe more but I haven't tested them.

Anyway these play directly in my browser

I think maybe it's just your media player plugin.

They all just go straight to download for me. Except the mp4, because it's supported as Web-Video by HTML5 and Chrome plays those in the browser by default. WebM would also play in Chrome by default.

Yes, possibly, not sure, maybe it's because the files are already on my computer
?
.avi and mp4 is vlc and use it
the others are 'always ask'
except .flv which wants to download if I let it

Need to fix my app list so it's consistent...
