That you can now post videos and photos from a variety of sites by simply entering the URL?

No nasty BBCode to work out or img tags, simply post the URL and that's it.

Do you have a list of those sites?

That's a link to a Flickr page, not an image. Have you tried the image only? (You also may need to alter your Flickr sharing settings to allow it.)

And did YOU know that the collective noun for rhinos is called a 'crash'? A crash of rhinos... awesome. It conjures up all kinds of slapstick hilarity.
