You can also download the encoded files for use elsewhere, embed them, or rebrand the video site with your own logo and domain name.&lt;p&gt;Use our Hacker News invite code hd4yc to sign up free, and let us know what you think of the WebM encodes.  We encode all the files in parallel, and the video pages update as the versions become available, so you may have to wait a bit for the WebM encodes to finish.</text></item></parent_chain><comment><author>codejoust</author><text>Currently, it looks as if the gallery pages are using flash -- what about using native html for browsers that can play WebM video natively?</text></comment>
