Seesmic: where YouTube meets Twitter
Seesmic enables users to share experiences on blogs, social networks and with each other by uploading videos straight from their webcam or mobile device. Seesmic members can record videos directly on Seesmic’s website, or they can add links to videos posted on other sites such as YouTube. Other members can then reply to those videos which results in threads of video conversations. The Seesmic platform also enables video conversations on more than a thousand sites, blogs and broadcasts them to other social software such as Twitter and Friendfeed thanks to its robust API. Seesmic also operates twhirl, a social desktop client, that now enables Seesmic video comments. twhirl represents 12% of Twitter messages being sent and has over 400,000 downloads.
It is easy to join in the video conversations on Seesmic. Many computers have built-in cameras, or you can purchase a webcam. Once you have a camera, hit the record button on Seesmic and start talking. Don’t worry, you can discard the video if you aren’t pleased with how it looks. To embed videos on a website or blog, it’s as easy as pasting in a snippet of code, just as you would to embed a YouTube video.
