You may want to fix the links in the readme though.
Anyway the backstory is that me and jayniz used to work together, and he usually adds a gif to each of his readme files.
For WebRTC p2p video streaming in general, it seems promising. At the moment, though, there's little to no browser support and getting a full system (there's also a server involved, to initiate the connections) is not automated or abstracted yet.

I was thinking of libifying my thingy, in a quite minimalistic way (at a minumum, the user would just pass two functions, one "update" and one "draw", which would receive a the current frame and, in the first case, the delta time).
This way you could just get freaky with the canvas effects and composing capabilities and stop caring about the low-level stuff.
I see you know your way around building nice, clean APIs; could you suggest me article/book about it? I'm kind of a newbie to that sort of things.
Anyway, I limited myself to trying out the various vendors' prefixes; this being mainly an experiment/preview I'd rather keep the code clean than support non-cutting-edge browsers.
I'll update the paragraph about the compatibility though; thanks for the heads up!
