Vidses! BamVidVault > Imeem.
Jun. 30th, 2009 05:43 pmOkay all!
Since imeem decided to unceremoniously give everyone 5 days' notice - VIA A BLOG POST - not even a personalised email, so if I hadn't been watching various comms and heard it from a friend I WOULD NOT HAVE EVEN KNOWN - before pulling ALL user generated content from their website.
Boy am I glad I decided AGAINST shelling out for a paid account in case I wanted to upload more than the free limit (which I was already mysteriously over).
Anyway.
I HAVE A NEW HOME FOR MY STREAMING VIDS!

Currently, if you do not have a Bam Vid Vault account, you can't view my profile (though accounts are free). But I can still embed freely, which is the important thing.
I do have some minor reservations about Bam simply because it's entirely dependent on Ning's architecture and Ning recently had to take down the porn streaming sites they were hosting because they were generating too much litigation and copyright infringement notices.
At the same time, nowhere is safe, and since this basically seems to be a fan-created community using a community-streaming site as a platform, the people in charge of the day-to-day running of things are actual VIDDERS. So while - as with everywhere - survival of the site itself might not be assured, at least I'm damn sure the owners aren't going to suspend my account because of copyright infringement issues. Since, you know, vids are the purpose of this entire site.
So, um, just a general purpose notice, in case you cared, I have gone back through all my vid posts (accessible from my "vid" tag - yes, people, I have a functioning sane tag, try not to die of shock) and changed the embed codes so streaming will work again.
IN OTHER NEWS.
( One day maybe my parents will remember I do not like strawberries. Today is not that day. )
And now you are all free to lower your opinions of me as the strawberry-hating MONSTER that I am!
