Video Sharing Entry Added to Wikipedia
Thursday, August 3rd, 2006Amazingly enough, there was not a video sharing entry already posted in Wikipedia. So we created one. Hopefully this will allow for the start of a discourse to define just what is "Video Sharing" in today’s web?
Video sharing has not become the video equivalent of today’s typical photo-sharing company. Instead the big fish in the video sharing pond is more broadcast company, giving power to the individual to broadcast to the masses — something the big three in Photo-Sharing (oFoto, Shutterfly, Snapfish) would shudder at.
And the video sharing industry has already started to segment itself based on feature sets and capabilities. While the now-traditional Video Sharing companies specialize in broadcasting user-generated content, we now also have companies providing white-label technology to other social sites (such as Video Egg, Reality Digital, VidaVee and HomeMovie.Com), companies developing web-based video-editing capabilities (StashSpace, EyeSpot, JumpCut, MotionBox), as well as two companies (StashSpace and VideoEgg) deploying web-based video-capture tools to ease the importation of videotaped content into online accounts.
Please have at it, add your company to the list and help us all define the new world of Video Sharing at: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Video_sharing.
