I had some fun this weekend with Python, <video>, CouchDB and Brett Gaylor’s [RiP: A Remix Manifesto](http://www.ripremix.com). In just a few hours I was able to crank out a little [annotations remix](http://ripannotations.pythonesque.org) which allows anyone to add annotations to the film that are displayed as people view it.

I’m hosting it on my little mac mini (currently hidden in a data-center) so hopefully it doesn’t fall over pushing so much video

I’ve posted all the code up on [github](http://github.com/mikeal/ripannotations/tree/master). The more I use <video> and CouchDB the more excited I get about the future of web applications. This entire project was done in little chunks of spare time over the weekend and most of that was me messing around with styling. To get the data stored, queried, and displayed took less than 2 hours.

Hope you all enjoy the annotations remix and if you haven’t already go and pay what you want for a terrific copy of [RiP: A Remix Manifesto](http://www.ripremix.com). It’s worth it.
