Video Blogs on Google
Larry Page, one of the founders of Google, pre-announced a new beta service today at the National Cable & Telecommunications Show. In the next few days, Google will allow video blogging on their servers. Initially it will be an experiement to learn how to efficiently search and display video information, but I bet new video blogging celebrities won't be far behind. And no, First Adopter will not be one of them. I won't force my face on the world, that would be cruel to our readers.While there's no formal announcement yet, Google co-founder Larry Page said Monday that the well-known search engine concern would soon let the general public upload self-produced videos to Google's servers, partly in an effort to learn more about how to more efficiently search and display information about video-based data. "It's an experiment we want to run," said Page of the video-uploading service, which he said the company will formally announce "in the next few days."
