- The title of this video should change with the times. But nothing lasts forever: here's the story of how I made it work, why it used to be easier to make that work, and how it all ties in to the White Cliffs of Dover and the end of the universe.

I'd imagine the views presented by the CZcams API are what are also used to show end users. All of the view fudging and aggregation will happen in the background before it's presented anywhere.
