Jacob Burke — Mon, 11 Aug 2008 13:09:26 +0000

Viddler has launched their new player branding. What is this? Well you can now brand your player for when videos are embedded on sites. This includes modifying the color and adding a custom logo.

For those of you that are Viddler users, you can view these customization options under Settings -> Player Branding.

Here is a video from Rob Sandie, Viddler’s President, with the custom branding.

Get yourself a branded player – ONLY ON VIDDLER!

Cheers!

Is Twitter Dying?

Jacob Burke — Fri, 04 Jul 2008 07:00:42 +0000

Tonight on Seesmic I asked the question ‘Is Twitter Dying?’. I got a good amount of replies to my question, most of them being positive and people hope that the service stays alive. My true reason behind asking the question was to see what people really thought. My hope is that Twitter does continue to fix the scalability and architecture issues and comes back stronger than ever. I really like the community I have built and would have to have to build another one elsewhere. I have embeded the video from Seesmic, which also shows the entire conversation (the audio is low in my initial post).

I encourage you to leave me your thoughts on this, I am always looking to know what you have to say!

Cheers!

Professional Videos with ANIMOTO

As I was catching up on my reading for the weekend, Dennis Miller, the PR Director at Mansfield University (my alma mater), wrote an article about his experience with ANIMOTO. Now, Dennis is a great guy and is heavily involved in technology when it comes to public relations. He is always looking for the next best thing to come along. As I was reading, I got more intriqued with this site. So, I hopped on over, signed up for an account, and within 30 minutes I had a video exported to YouTube.

What ANIMOTO does is use a computer system to act as the editor and put together a professional video of photos and music. My little video came out nice, I used more photos than what was recommended – only a handful of them get used.

This is a great site for people like Dennis that have a lot of photos that they want to set to music. Mansfield University has a lot of events throughout the year. The $30/year cost doesn’t seem too bad for unlimited videos at extended lengths. A free account will get you 30 second shorts.

My take on ANIMOTO? Great for the person that wants a video put together quick & easy.

Cheers!

Getting Crazy on Friday!

I decided to get crazy last Friday and have some fun. I should have posted this sooner, but wanted to use the new viddler plugin to see how well it works out. Enjoy me making an ass out of myself lipsyncing to “What Is Love?”

Cheers!
