Everyone seems to be on a hurry to make video sharing the trendy thing to do, making photo sharing the thing of the past. Revver<\/a> has a huge library of videos that makes killing time a much easier task on lazy Friday afternoons. <\/p>\n

Revver’s competitor, YouTube<\/a> offers a similar service. Both companies received millions of dollars from venture capitals for making video sharing the new “Flickr<\/a>” (now a Yahoo company).<\/p>\n

There are a number of other smaller operations doing exactly the same thing. OurMedia<\/a>, vimeo<\/a> and DailyMotion<\/a> are all part of this online video “revolution”.<\/p>\n

Of course, what’s a revolution without the bloggers taking on the multi-million dollar seeded companies. Blip.tv<\/a> is a blog that features tons of videos. Even more interesting, VlogMap<\/a> shows a geographic map of where various different vlogs are using Google Maps<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Speaking of Google, the monster search machine recently debuted its video search<\/a> feature. And a search war is never complete without Yahoo video search<\/a> and MSN Video<\/a>. One word on MSN Video: damn Microsoft has to make an online app that requires a Windows-only plugin to be installed. Get with the party, Microsoft. <\/p>\n

While researching on various video search and sharing sites, I found an independent cable network “Current.tv<\/a>“. Apparently Google has a hand in the venture<\/a> since the network broadcasts “Google Current” as part of its programming. Former U.S. Vice President, Al Gore<\/a> chairs this hip start up.<\/p>\n

It’s interesting to note that not only is Google dominating the online battle, the company is diversifying into chatting, broadcast programming and a supporter<\/a> of the open source movement.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
