You have a very impressive list of tools you integrate with.

Minor bug: the "Watch the Planning Intro" box doesn't grow when the text size does; it just cuts off the text.

Mind hosting the planning intro video with a source that lets you embed HTML5 video and only fall back to Flash?

Unfortunately, Vimeo's HTML5 embed doesn't give you an API that you can use to close the video from JS, which is why we're using their older Flash embed. I'd love to make the switch once they change that, though.

Have you tried YouTube's HTML5 embed?

No we haven't, and that's something for us to keep in mind if we think about switching, but for the time being all our stuff's in Vimeo and I don't think we have any plans to move it.

EDIT: Actually, on thinking on it for another minute, I suppose it'd be pretty easy to do detection to support people who don't have Flash installed. Thanks for the suggestion--I'll put that in our queue.

Thanks!

To clarify -- those are tools we'd like to integrate with, but we need your help in prioritizing which to start with.

yeah, that was confusing. Don't assume that people actually read every single word on your page ;-)
