You can be watching something totally different from the context of the page you are watching in. blip.tv :- don't they say like they prefer 'series' or shows rather than one off wannabe beiber uploads? :P I believe a lot of free/libre content can be found here. vimeo :- besides good quality, it also has a decent working non-flash video player. Though I didn't find a category or section for open licensed work, which reminds me of dailymotion :- because I like going through the motionmaker channel. They recently have updated their player. I was trying it as beta. The ads/promos on the site, put Indian TV ads to shame. Viddler: most important thing missed out .... it's one that allowed text comments esp. by anyone who viewed the video at any point on the timeline. They had this long long before youtube had comments in-video I think p.s. I was kinda getting wakeef with your blog to understand your style, so I ended up commenting such a lot. Nothing spells happiness like freedom from 140 chars. :D Youtube :- Like it as its the only one of which when you view an embedded video on any other site, once the video’s done playing the embedded interface itself turns out to be a self-adequate video search engine.

I have been using the site for years now, and still think it is doing a good job. Ok, so sometimes it gets criticized for being too easy to break copyright laws, but youtube's online security is getting better. The best thing about the site is its great <a href="http://www.dozenvideo.com" rel="nofollow">video search</a> engine and database. No wonder it made it as the top sharing site on http://www.dozenvideo.com this month. But there's some tough competition out there and as online video gets bigger and bigger, there's sure to be a backlash. Keep online videos free and easy to share!

And yes you should give blip.tv a look although vimeo works fine for me over here. You’re most welcome Rinaz. And yes you should give blip.tv a look although vimeo works fine for me over here.

I've tried vimeo in the past and liked it, but recently it takes forever to load a video, and then forever for me to be in the queue and then forever for it to be converted. Bleargh.
