Flickr is now allowing the uploading of videos. The video quality is really good, but they limit your videos to 90 seconds (a mistake, I think). In any case, I just just found a replacement for Veoh for videos under 90 seconds! YouTube’s video quality is subpar when compared to Flickr’s, and YouTube’s community is terrible (for comments, I mean).
Check out the video in fullscreen. It’s not bad. It also isn’t obvious how to break out of fullscreen mode if you don’t read the instructions :) (hit ESC to return).

the quality is very nice, even full screen on my 30 inch display
Wow - fabulous! Definitely way better than YouTube, especially with such wonderful detail on those closeup shots.
Vimeo’s quality is really nice, I’ve been seeing more of that lately.
Nice sharks, but you’ll never sell that footage to Discovery channel unless you can get them to act more crazy. Maybe if you speed up the footage and add more driving music.
(Sigh, does anyone remember when Discovery channel wasn’t trying to be so EXTREME?)
I am a big fan of Vimeo now too .. unlimited video size .. good quality .. and great formats.
just out of interest Eric .. ur wordpress is loggin me out when i go to comment, but is fine on the main journal page ..
