Social Networking news and information

Continued from yesterday's review of Online Video Sharing Sites.

Second Coolest Feature
Grouper allows users to download a PSP-ready version of the vidcast, which would really increase your audience.  However, they ruin it's ease by making it downloadable only through their software that you must download onto your machine.  Of course, with proprietary issues like this, it's no surprise that Sony recently purchased the video site. 

Least Appealing
Which brings me to the least appealing site.  I am so very tempted to name Vimeo here as no one on the entire site liked my videos.  ;)

Either it is set up to discourage networking or everyone hates me (entirely possible).  I don't know, maybe my videos just didn't resonate with this crew, but I got only a few views, no comments, no likes, etc. 

However, my own personal pity-party aside, Grouper definitely beats it out.  Their resistance to openness will kill the site, and the fact that Sony is now involved is NOT a helpful PR tool for them.

If you have a suggestion on a video sharing site, please leave me a comment. 

If you want to connect on any of the above-mentioned video sites, MySpace, YouTube, Grouper, Vimeo or Blip.tv, feel free.
