Hi Dan

I know that you're very passionate about this topic, but perhaps the
ultimate decision is to _not_ embed JSFiddle and similar content:

 a) JSFiddle may not be designed to be embedded (please correct me if I'm
wrong and provide *one* REALLY good example of embedded JSFiddle or JSDo.it
in another site's template)
b) wikis and the p2pu sites have other, far more general design
considerations and priorities than embedding a full width tool.

If so, what solutions can we come up with _instead_ of <iframe> embeds?

Are there alternatives to embed that you could describe that allow for non
P2PU content to be easily linked and viewed outside of the main site?.
Perhaps a Stumble Upon like frame which lets the target sites be viewed at
an appropriate size. Could a Firefox Add On provide the required
functionality of viewing and linking back into the P2PU context?

Thinking outside of a purely Webcraft context, could this tool also be
useful for people viewing and responding to content such as blog entries?
Keeping track of this content is also difficult and requires flipping
between tabs, just as much as JSFiddle does :-)

Best wishes,

Pippa
