I actually found the music and the video demo excellent! Great demo of your app.

The music was especially beautiful, I even looked it up. It's Planet Love by DJ Quicksilver in case anyone else liked it.

Don't let all these comments about auto-playing audio put you down. Great experience!

Well that was positive! Thank you! btw I turned it down to 25% in the last 10 minutes, I think it was at full blast before :)

So famo.us has got a pretty bad reputation, but it's actually a really good idea. The code is actually really well written too, and I'm sure that any bugs it has.. vis a vis scrolling etc.. are not design faults. They can be fixed. This is probably the best technical explanation I have seen of what famo.us actually is : http://ibm.com/developerworks/library/wa-famous/index.html

I don't get the hate famo.us gets on HN. But to be clear, their code isn't the best. Their code is quite janky in places and is very poorly documented (in the source and in the docs). I'm also pretty sure the bugs it has are design faults. All of this can be fixed, though, which is why I like to take a "wait and see" approach with famous.

Pretty slick video. The page is pretty buggy is some annoying ways. The chrome gesture for paging back doesn't work since I assume it's grabbing the mouse. When you page back or forwards to the page it reloads and it's white.

I didn't even know I could scroll down because holding the down button did nothing. That said, I do agree the video is really nice, and it's been a while since I saw a promising approach to collaborative video editing.

Wait, you can scroll down? There's no scrollbar, page-up/page-down/up/down do nothing, space does nothing. The site seems to be completely inaccessible to keyboard users.

Autoplaying music = instant close

Since the entire site is basically built around the demo, I think it's fine in this case, and improves the experience of seeing the demo.

you got it! it was hard to tell it was even a video, with out it!
