Flickr announced that you can now upload videos up to 90 seconds long if you’re a pro member. I thought I’d give some brief impressions comparing the Flickr video service to YouTube. Here’s a video i uploaded to Youtube a while ago…
I like that on myspace you can see a list of the sites that link to your video. Another nice feature is the number of views your video has.
And I just uploaded the video to Flickr. It gives you a progress bar while the video uploads so you know how long you’ll be waiting. After the upload and processing you can then embed the video…
I really like that there isn’t a Flickr ad on the corner of my video like YouTube has. I also love the way the status bar fades in and out depending on the cursor presence. You also can easily watch the video full screen.
At the end of the Flickr video it provides a link to my profile, option to comment and even a share this icon. Finally, next to the link to my Flickr profile is a text link to Flickr.
I foresee switching all my videos over… now…which one’s default code validates better with my doc type?YouTube has 6 markup errors and Flickr has 4.
