Part 2 of VideoBlogs…

May 15, 2005

This is part 2 of review on Videoaddon.com

Firstly I would Like to take this opportunity to thank Videoaddon.com

particularly Mr. Steve Mulgrave CRM for Videoaddon.com.

I will be interviewing Mr. Steve in the final part of this review in part 3 (coming soon).

Videoaddon.com was gracious enough to give me
a test account for their services, Below is my experience with their service:

1. Receives E-mail from Mr. Steve concerning willingness for an interview
and also informs me that i’ll be able to have a Test account.

2. Goes ahead to try out thier service, First page i see is the member’s Log-in page

v

3.Logged-in and gets the feel of the control panel.

v1

4. Straight to the upload page i headed to!!..:D

v2

I Uploaded My favourite Football (soccer) Clip (.wmv format). Below is the clip,
warning though…if you have dial-up..than you aint gonna enjoy the wait…..but if you have Broadband..click play! ;)

*P.S The second and Third Goal is a complete, fantastic goal!!..wait for it!..;)


5. After uploading your video you will see this screen, telling you that
your upload was sucessful and now if was being converted ( to flash) and will take a few minutes.
For me it took 10 minutes..which is quite fast indeed..:)

v3

6.Besides just uploading clips from your Hard drive, You can also do a live recording if you have a webcam
(a microphone would be a plus ;) )

v4

7. Another feature is the ability to do some minor adjusments on how you
want your clip to appear

Also a cool feature is (if you turn it on) the ability for automatic blog post of your video
upload to your Blogger or Typepad Blog.
This are the two popular blogging software that Videoaddons.com currently support for
automatic blog-post.

But no worries it works with any blog software
as evident in this blog powered By Wordpress.

After your video has been converted to flash, you will receive a HTML code and it’s as easy
as Copy and Paste it to your blog.

Of course i’ve only reviwed the blog aspect of thir service, but in any case you can place your video anywhere where HTML is used, e.g ebay auctions, websites

Stay Tuned for the final part (part 3) of this review as I interview Mr.Steve himself about
videoaddons.com.

If you have any questions about thier services please leave your question(s) in the comments or contact me, and i will try my best to include your question and foward it to
Mr. Steve of Videoaddon.com

Thank You.

    Hi again,

    I did go forward and I have registered with videoaddon.com. But now, I am having a small problem, how do I insert the piece of code ( given by videoaddon) in my wordpress. I have tried to use the Admin - “Write Post” and using “Paste” + Save+ Publishing. I can not see the video..just my comments!.

    How did you manage to place the code in website?

    Looking forward to hear from you.
    Thanks a lot.

    Cheers.

    hopefully you are using firefox browser…

    when copying the code form videoaddon.com

    make sure the whole code is copied.

    Hi,

    they offer 3 different sizes - I choose medium size.

    Apart from that I use I.E and I can see the football match video in your website.

    Could you tell me if you are using the wordpress Administrator “Create a new post interface” or using different one?

    Thanks for quick reply!!..I really appreciate.
