More HootCourse embed options available

We've gotten a few requests for new ways to embed the mini-client, beyond the tab that's featured on our main page. Here's our new embed page:

Hootcourse_embed

The first new option for embedding is inline HTML. You can put this anywhere in your HTML document and it'll show the mini-client right there on the page, no tab needed. As with most inline embed elements, you can adjust the size to your liking. Our mini-client works with widths greater than 199 pixels.

Our second new method is the Google Gadget by URL. Google Gadgets work on iGoogle, Google sites, and Blogger. Blogger is also one of the blogging platforms we support, making it a great choice for professors looking to use a blog with a particular course.

We're looking forward to seeing how users integrate our mini-client into their own sites. If you've got a site with the mini-client that you'd like to show us, tweet at @HootCourse with the URL.

Trying this out with seventh graders this year and see if they can have an insightful online conversation about "Touching Spirit Bear".
