Check out the embed.ly API

So, you've got a URL and you'd like to embed it. What do you do? Well, if you're smart, you don't reinvent the wheel. Instead, you exercise the oEmbed spec and let someone else do the heavy lifting. Embed.ly tracks over 100 domains and properly converts your URL (to YouTube, Viddler, Twitter, and more) into proper HTML embed tags for your immediate use.
