Photographs changes video as we know it
The header seems somewhat to enthusiastic you say? Well, judge for yourself. A piece of software called Photographs from Washington University looks like it might seriously change the way we deal with video for good by combining video with high-resolution photo shots. Says Gizmodo:
Essentially, you shoot some crappy, low-rez video of a still scene. […]

Tooltips for syncing slides and video
VCASMO is a pretty neat tool to sync video and slides. Just sayin’. VCASMO syncs videos fromm youtube or similar sources, and slideshows from slideshow.com. It’s a great little mashup, the results can be embedded either 440 pixels wide (as seen above) or 850 pixels wide:

12seconds: Twitter for video (and video for Twitter)
A new day, a new video service. Today: 12seconds, which has a refreshing take on web video: Record a video message of exactly 12 seconds, the moving image equivalent of a 140 character message on Twitter. It’s a video micro blog.

Bits exist to be copied / LIFT Talks
Through Oriol Miralbell’s blog I just stumbled over this conference talk. Maybe the headline sounded familiar to you? Right, it’s Cory Doctorow on Digital Rights Management, here filmed at LIFT ‘06. As always it’s a great talk.

Hobnox: Slick new player. (May work.)
Hobnox, an up-and-coming community site for artists, has quite a few assets. One of them is an audio tool WIRED loves. Another one, which I’d like to focus on here, is a video streaming tool.
This is some really interesting piece of software right there. Without knowing anything about the technical background, I have to […]
Widgets Are Your Friend
Tony Hirst, author of this neat RSS manifesto and edupunk extraordinaire, produced this little gem of a pro-remix, pro-sharing, pro-widget rant:
[embed] changes everything
