Vimeo近期的更新

偶lag了许多vimeo的新闻。
– Bigger video: 506 pixels wide instead of 460.
– Better quality video: 500kbps, instead of 400kbps (Down the road, we will convert your old videos to higher quality automatically; if you want it now, you can Replace the video)
– Better video player: faster, you can Share, Embed, or Like it from anywhere you can watch it (Albums, Channels, or on external sites).
– There’s now a separate Settings page for each video. This means no more clumsy in-line editing.
– New upload page: It’s actually built-in to the settings page. So you can upload and edit clips in the same way, instead of having two separate interfaces. The uploading process is more stable and responsive.
– Easier, faster friend finder for cast and privacy. It shows your contacts, by default, instead of any random users who match your search text.
– The Share and Embed popups are much easier now; try them!
– If the video belongs to a Channel or Album, you will see it prominently next to the video. This will help you discover other related videos, but tastefully, ie, instead of plastering “Related Videos” thumbnails everywhere.
-everyone’s weekly upload quota will increase from 250 MB to 500 MB
-We have also created an HD video showcase using our new Channels platform: http://vimeo.com/hd

zooomr新增批量上传和infovideo功能

对于这个只有两个人的公司来说，这已经很不容易了，Kris和Thomas也是相当有追求的人了，他们在不断的完善Zooomr。近些天Zooomr又有所强壮，增加了批量上传功能，使得需要大量图片上传的人欣慰不已，经过使用发现有标签功能依然无效，已经发信给Kris。另一个就是增加了youtube的infowidgets（我更喜欢称之为infovideo），就是能在图片旁边加上video做注释，以前我介绍过vimeo，现在又增加了youtube的支持。具体做法也很简单，就是加上这样形式的标签：
youtube:clip=UTh0JhzWssw
vimeo:clip=12345
clip后是video的ID。真的衷心希望Zooomr能越来越好！

flickr update to "loves you"

突然之间发现Flickr不再是原先的Gamma版了。目前的logo上是“Loves you”，什么时候改的就不清楚了，估计与5月29号的升级有关。Why? why flickr loves me? haha, please check the following video.

互联网的本质就是互为link

新版的zooomr mark iii有这样的一个新功能称之为vimeo infowidget，就是添加一个这样的tag：”vimeo:clip=194317″，就能在图片的旁边显示vimeo上的clip。这个功能，在 vimeo上也有相似的体现，不过是针对flickr的，叫做”linking Flickr photo to clips“，也是在clip上添加一个tag：”flickr:13544564″，链接flickr上的一个相关的图片。（上面的数字都是ID号）小小的创新，足显制作者们的诚意。
