| -Iframely does it by parsing [oEmbed](http://oembed.com/), [Open Graph](http://ogp.me/) and [Twitter Cards](https://dev.twitter.com/docs/cards) and general meta on the original page. Or by using specific domain plugins in the package. |

| -There are over 150 custom domains included as open-source. Plus, there is a whitelist option for oEmbed, Open Graph and Twitter Cards that acts like a gigantic plugin for generic parsers. You can [create your own whitelist](https://iframely.com/docs/whitelist-format) or [get one](https://iframely.com/plans) with [over 1600 domains](https://iframely.com/try) from Iframely. By default, our whitelist with Top 100 domains is included for free with your package. |
| 19 | +The simplest way to see Iframely in action is by using our [Chrome plugin](https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/iframely-url-previews/bbafbcjnlgfbemjemgliogmfdlkocjmi). This way you will see the embeds on your (or any really) site right away (but not on GitHub due to Content-Security-Policy, sorry). |
