Popcorn Maker 1.0 Beta – TED Launch

We’re about 3 weeks away from the Popcorn Maker 1.0 launch at this year’s Mozilla Festival in London.  Just to raise my blood pressure a bit, we’ve shipped a beta today.  It coincides with the release of an amazing TED talk by Mozilla’s Ryan Merkley about Popcorn.js and Popcorn Maker.  “It would be cool if we could work with this video using the tool he’s discussing, is that possible?”  It is :)

I’m really proud of the work we’ve done here, not least because so many of my former and current Seneca students have worked on it as part of class projects and NSERC funded research at Seneca’s Centre for Development of Open Technology.

A huge thanks and congratulations to:

  • David Seifried
  • Chris De Cairos
  • Matthew Schranz
  • Jon Buckley
  • Scott Downe
  • Robert Stanica
  • Mohammed Buttu
  • Daniel Hodgin

I’ll blog with more info about Popcorn Maker when we ship 1.0.

Well done team, well done.
