home page

1. I have added the ability to paste embed's and object's directly into the ChannelItem body. With the exception of a title, all other information is optional.

2. I have modified the Ourmedia homepage player to handle this new kind of content in the feeds. so far it works with a blip.tv paste, this and the condelicious post you asked about the other day.

I am just now finishing up on the sizing issues (we can handle anything up to width of content column (about 600 currently). well let you know when it is ready.

You can see an example of this at http://staging.ourmedia.org - it is currently pulling the feed from the "sites we like" channel which i am using at the moment for testing this. you can see the channel entry here at http://channels.ourmedia.org/node/117
