Knezzen:
Very nice! Going to check it out tonight :)

Pushing this old thread, as I've just added another update to Cornica and realizing it has had its 5th year anniversary earlier! Wow.
More than 2.000+ Quicktime movies waiting for you and your lovely OS 9 Mac to discover.
Have fun :)

I had paid very little attention (if any) to Cornica, but visited a bit back using my favorite browser Cyberdog. Cornica is the perfect site for Cyberdog. Clicking on a video, starts an automatic download, which when completed automatically opens QuickTime Player to view the movie.
In that regard Cyberdog and OpenDoc make something of a nice follow on to Gopher, where Cyberdop shows the content available and depending on what you select the content is downloaded, saved and opened with the assigned application/viewer. Of course the draw back is that there are very few OpenDoc aware applications. For a media site like Cornica Cyperdog, acts like a playlist. With selected movies downloaded and saved going back to Cornica to rewatch a movie, the movie will play in Quicktime, without the need to re-download.
Overall it is a very pleasant experience.

Well, using Interweb on my G4 running 10.5.8, every video I have played has worked just fine. Now it doesn't support it in the browser--I have to download it instead which takes just seconds. f
Funny to watch my former boss praising the 128K. Man how young he was then reminded me how young I was!
