Datatubes allows users to upload their videos to datatubes and offers playback of the videos on your own web site. This isn’t any old Youtube embed code. Not only are individual videos embed-able in your Web site. You can embed entire libraries of videos on your primary Web site!
and… when the videos in your library are updated, the embed code automatically updates the library listing of videos available within your Web site.
It gets even better!
Not only can you upload videos to the service and build a comprehensive automatically updated library, Your guests can be invited to share their videos too! Right from Your Web page!
I’ve only been trying out Datatubes new video library service for about an hour, but I’m more than impressed with the results. What do you think?
Benefits to Datatubes:
- In less than 2 hours you can walk in, set up everything and have a complete video library hosting solution running on your Web site. What’s more, you’ll not have to updated any code the next time you upload a video. Just upload it and it’s there running from your site.
- Embedded versions of your videos aren’t watermarked with logos of other video hosting sites.
- It’s social. You can invited your fans to embed their travel videos on your site!
- Search widgets make your videos searchable right on your Web site.
- Tourism regions and businesses often can’t afford the expense of creating their own video sharing portal. They can with datatubes – it’s free.
- Video resolution can be set at a wide range of settings and play back in full screen with just a click.
- Bandwidth is provided away from your server. So no worries about slowing your site down by hosting your own.
Got to run, on my way to SXSWi but couldn’t resist getting started creating a video hosting library on our own Web site. Who’d have thought?
I hope you’ll pardon the exclamation points on this post. Needless to say, I’m excited about Datatubes.
