Vimeo is now supporting High Definition web videos in the resolution of 1280 x 720 !
The resolution of High Definition Videos provided by Vimeo is really referring to HDTV contrary to other video sharing services claiming to provide very soon HD, where they will just propose a quality just above the standard YouTube videos…
HDTV refers to two video formats: 720p and 1080i, corresponding to the number of horizontal lines used to produce the image.
Vimeo presents HD in the 720p format, which is the exact same resolution (1280×720) used by major broadcast networks, at 24 frames per second.
To experiment this impressive quality you must connect to Vimeo HD Channel.
With Vimeo, you can already upload High Definition videos (with a weekly quota of 500MB for now) with a resolution of 1280×720 or better ! Vimeo servers will first make a standard quality version, then a little later your video will appear in HD.
Revver, the famous video sharing website that allows anyone to monetize video content with built-in advertisement, has been acquired by Live Universe for $ 5 million !
Live Universe already operates multiple video sites, including the video-sharing service LiveVideo.
LoadUp and Smotri are video sharing websites from Russia. There is nothing new proposed by these websites, except all basic features proposed by all YouTube like websites…The interfaces are available in Russia and English.
Something funny: the two websites are absolutely the same, except for the names and logo. Even published videos are the same ! Mayby the Russian web 2.0 is now specialized in web duplicates…
We can also note that there seems quite open to any type of video shared on their interfaces…(if you see what I mean…).
I think there is no need to test or explain the main idea of this video sharing website. Its name speaks for itself…As you can guess, StupidVideos.com objectives are to share and stream dumbest videos you can find on the Internet…which is not a big challenge, since this probably 50% of videos spread on the whole Internet…
To give you an overall idea of the intellectual level of videos you can find, simply watch the following screenshots:
Nevertheless, if you think you have THE dumbest video of the year, don’t lose a minute and publish it on StupidVideos.com, because you could win $ 25000 …
