...first thanks to GLOBOsapiens for a great place to upload some pictures and memories of all the adventuers ive had in the past...
I cannt find any place on the web that does the same for travel videos! Does anyone? Suggested is a site where one could also upload good amateur clips (say only 9-59 seconds) of travel experiences. GLOBOsapiens only probem was storagespace, now solved by more efficiant harddrives, MEMBERS only problem was editing and video-capture, solved by PC-cards and software. Even I am bored of my hours of amateur videos but I have atleast 100 such short clips that say 1000x more than pictures!
placing videos is not possible at this time. This is due to high bandwith costs. To distribute a video you need way more money than advertisement on this particular video section can bring, not to forget the amount of hard disc space and processor power you need to store and even more relevant to backup the system. Therefore it is just a financial issue, not a technical.
