YLiveGroups: Greasemonkey script for Yahoo Live
YLiveGroups: dharmafly.com/blog/ylivegroups
Over the last couple of days, we've been piecing together a Greasemonkey userscript for BarCamp, which enables Yahoo Live users to broadcast live video as a group.
The userscript interacts with both the Yahoo Live API and our own simple YLiveGroups API. Our API uses XOXO microformat HTML documents to exchange data (as opposed to standard XML or JSON). The script then uses JQuery to interract with the XOXO documents and the web page that the user is currently viewing.
