vSocial - Upload, Watch and Share Video Clips
http://www.vsocial.com/

vSocial is an online community built around the singular objective of providing the fastest, easiest way to upload, watch and share your favorite video clips. Our focus is on enabling you to work with this dynamic medium to accomplish three primary outcomes: 1) TELL STORIES: If a blog post takes a thousand words to tell a story, and a picture is worth a thousand words, then video shall become the ultimate story telling vehicle on the web. Our mission is to provide you the tools you need to tell compelling stories, 2) START CONVERSATIONS: Unlike TV and cinema, the web is a two way medium. With vSocial, you can rate, review or blog about a movie that moves you, that makes you laugh, cringe, or just think, and 3) EXTEND THE WEB: Their vision is a web that is neither bounded by walled gardens nor limited to text and pictures. It is a web of movies and sound, that can be syndicated and subscribed to, shared by email, embedded in web sites and integrated into web services. vSocial makes extending the web to video single click easy. Their inspirations are services like Flickr, which provided a canvas and palette for working with photos online; Craigslist, which proved that delivering a rich user experience was more predicated on keeping things simple and focusing on community than getting bloated up by "features" for features sake; and eBay, which elevated the lowly offline garage sale to an online marketplace that generates billions of dollars, yields many tens of millions of transactions and has created almost half a million jobs. Are you an artist with a story to tell? Are there conversations you are looking to start that can best be told with video? Are you looking to express your individuality through moving pictures? vSocial was built for you! This has been added to Social Informatics Subject Tracerâ„¢ Information Blog.
