OT - Another public video sharing place

Anyone see the site?
www.youtube.com

I'm starting to see more and more of these kinda sites. Free hosting of videos that people can upload. Just sign up with an email and upload away. It's mostly teens with their cell cameras fooling around, but the quality is pretty good and you can upload as many videos as you want at up to 100 megs each (!)

I just wanted to mention this as there may be some folks up there without their own website and are looking to upload videos for other forum members to see....

I really like these sites because there are other sites where you just upload a hot link and the videos are "bandwith stolen" from your own site. ... A serious problem I had last summer.

Any other free uploading video sites around ? Be cool to share this kind of resource.

To save on bandwidth costs I was planning on moving some of my videos off my site and onto mpegnation.com which seems to be very cheap for what it offers. I reckon if you're paying for the service at least some sort of reliablilty/speed can be expected.

I too am very interested in free video sharing places, especially if they allow a web link along with the video. I get quite a few hits on my site from people who've seen my video on vegasusers.com and I expect my Google pagerank benefits a bit.

Much thanks for the link - Just tried it and they even give you the code to embed it on your web page for viewing there!

Only wish they had a larger limit....

I just used VidiLife.com to host a 15-minute documentary video - I think the limits are higher. The thing I don't like is that when you upload your video their system "massages" it to add their logo in the bottom right corner for the first 30 seconds of your movie. But it's free and the system provides you with three sets of HTML codes (one for sending in mail, one for embedding in a web page and a third that plays the video right there in your browser page). Pretty cool.
