Paste in any You Yube, HTML5 or Soundcloud media. Slice and dice it on the Popcorn Maker timeline. Then publish as one seamless playback. Make videos on the web &#8212; without having to download, compress, edit in a desktop app, re-upload, etc. Hot!<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/brettgaylor.tumblr.com\/post\/40547703543\/new-webmaker-prototypes\"><strong>Integrating Thimble + Popcorn<\/strong><\/a>: <strong>Thimble and Popcorn brought together in a single interface<\/strong>. Learn to code while making cool interactive movies and sounds.<strong><\/strong><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/brettgaylor.tumblr.com\/post\/40547703543\/new-webmaker-prototypes\"><strong>Popcorn slide shows<\/strong><\/a>: <strong>Create cool slide shows with website- type \u201cpages\u201d or sections<\/strong>. Make interactive narratives, choose-your-own-adventure, hackable comics, visual novel non-linear story telling, etc.<strong> <\/strong><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/brettgaylor.tumblr.com\/post\/40547703543\/new-webmaker-prototypes\"><strong>Webmaker &#8220;save for later.&#8221;<\/strong><\/a> <strong>Like a <a href=\"https:\/\/gimmebar.com\/\">&#8220;gimme bar&#8221;<\/a> for Webmaker.<\/strong> A clipping add-on that lets you grab image, text, video or html as you&#8217;re browsing the web, then pull it into a gallery and remix it with Webmaker. Shows how we could incorporate Webmaker right into Firefox.<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/brettgaylor.tumblr.com\/post\/40547703543\/new-webmaker-prototypes\"><strong>Turbo You Tube upload<\/strong><\/a>. <strong>Directly upload video from your camera to You Tube<\/strong>, all within Popcorn Maker.
