Upgrade to SlideShare's v2 API

[GoogleCodeExporter]

SlideShare now support documents and spreadsheets that utilize a new format for 
the embedded code.  
v1 of the SlideShare API (using get_slideshow_info) does not output the correct 
embedded html code for 
these kinds of documents.

Here is an example SlideShare document that does not behave well with the 
current version of oohEmbed:
http://www.slideshare.net/CrystalTecheSolutions/how-dry-cleaning-works

v2 of the SlideShare API does output the correct embedded code.   Please 
upgrade oohEmbed to use the 
SlideShare v2 API.

Here is documentation on the working get_slideshow API call in v2:
http://www.slideshare.net/developers/documentation/v2#get_slideshow

Attached is a cursory patch to upgrade the API.  The changes are pretty 
trivial, but my lack of python and 
app engine experience kept me from fully testing it.  Hopefully, it gets you 
started if not takes you the 
whole way.

Thanks for the info & the patch. I am currently doing some refactoring of the
oohembed code and will hopefully have a new beta version live this weekend 
(famous
last words!)

I'll check the patch and decide whether to merge it with the current version or 
wait
till I finish the refactoring and merge it with that.

I've applied this path to the main code line. You can test it out at:

Deepak,  Works great.  Thanks!  When do you expect the "production" side of 
things to take advantage of this 
new feature and your other refactors?

Hi Ryan.

Just created a [wiki page][1] that lists the stuff I plan to do for this 
release.
Hopefully, I'll switch oohembed.com to chocochip within the next week or so.
