I like the concepts behind iframely better than those behind oEmbed, because you get an iframe URL, which is safer to embed than 3rd party HTML and you can change the size of the iframe on your own (no need for another request to get the embed code of another size). Their endpoint isn't free, but their software is. So you can run your own iframely server, if you want. https://github.com/itteco/iframely https://github.com/itteco/iframely http://iframely.com/ http://iframely.com/ http://iframely.com/debug http://iframely.com/debug I submitted a few patches concerning HTML parsing, Google Maps, OpenStreetMap, Magnatune.com, OCReMix.org, Firefox Marketplace, Tindeck.com (and a few tiny bugfixes).

Thanks for the mention (and contributing) Mathias. A quick clarification: #1: our endpoint is "community" one. It's free and open for dev purposes, but it's not suggested for production use as one can easily self-host it (though we use same server for number of heavy traffic apps like Iframely for Gmail chrome ext). #2: Iframely now has the oEmbed endpoint too. We trim much richer infos into oembed format for backwards compatibility.
