Mine just gives black screen, even kills right click options, reload from menu or Control+R does nada.

XP Home with all patches, FF 15.1, even restarted with add-ons disabled, nada.

I have had problems with other

Vimeos, and this one just eventually

started working. I haven't knowingly

added any patches in a long time

and turned off updates over a year

ago. I don't know.

That's really weird. Folks like Vimeo would seem to be incentivized to get their stuff working on as many platforms as possible. Now that said, I posted here over something like youtube so that I didn't have to break it up into chunks. The video that I uploaded yesterday was a 1.9Gb H.264 .mp4 file. It well could be that their algorithm gives priority to smaller stuff and works bigger stuff in when it can. Who knows?

I am glad to have some visibility into this, though. We use Vimeo at work all the time.

The person speaking in this video really brought an interesting perspective. I'm looking forward to seeing where this goes. And interestingly, even though I've been involved in the planning, I have no idea where it's going to end up.

Video worked fine on Safari 6.0, OSX 10.7.4.

Is it rude to send someone a link to a video from church when they send you one of those obnoxious emails about how our devout, Protestant forefathers are disappointed in us?

I'll let you know - because it seems like I get about 10 a week right now.

I'd say fair game. These videos are very enlightening. Maybe they would consider being less obnoxious after

considering another's point of view. I am a strayed Episcopalian and I am enjoying them.

That is IF they will consider another point of view.

That is IF they will consider another point of view.

I figure whether they will or won't, at least it will get me off of the email forward list. So it's a win/win!

Looking at the stats on the sharing site, it looks like a fair number of people are watching these, so here's the next installment:

Kingdom Politics - Week 05 - Discipleship and Patriotism

For those who are keeping up with this, here's Week 06 and 07, both a Democratic and Republican perspective. While I appreciate each of these speakers, like their modern parties, they both kind of let me down. Maybe it's too much to expect. Maybe they were just trying to tee it up for this week's non-participant:

Kingdom Politics - Week 06 - How my faith led me to vote for Democrats

Kingdom Politics - Week 07 - How my faith led me to vote for Republicans

http://player.vimeo.com/video/52016118

Here's the last week for those of you who have been keeping up. Maybe the most thought provoking

Kingdom Politics - Week 08 - How my faith led me to abstain from voting

Thank you!
