Pivotshare helps media creators and publishers sell their digital video content direct to their audiences, on our platform or your own site. Via Robin Good 
Robin Good's curator insight,
May 9, 5:59 AM
Pivotshare is a web service that allows any author or independent publisher to create a professional-looking video venue where to showcase, organize and (optionally) sell access to video and audio content. Video channels created on Pivotshare will have a personalized URL such as robingood.pivotshare.com, and you can further brand the channel with your selected profile picture or logo and your favorite background. Video channels can be displayed as "showcases" or "libraries" depending on the quantity of material you have available, can be embedded on any web site and can be easily viewed across all types of screens and devices, from desktop to mobile. On Pivotshare you can upload directly .MP4, .MOV, .SWF, .FLV, .AVI, and .MP3 files and organize them into discrete collections. You can add names, descriptions, relevant tags as well as decide how you want to make this material accessible. You can for example let everyone see freely certain content, while at the same time making a "tip jar" facility available and setting your preferred minimum tip level. Or you can decide to set a "monthly subscription price", rather than a "rental" or "purchase" fee. Check this image to get a better idea: http://o7.no/15Mgscw It is also possible to invite and collaborate with other authors / publishers contributing all to the same video channel. Pivotshare is definitely a gret solution for independent authors and publishers, who are looking to start their commercial video channel online with the minimum effort and the maximum of results. There are no costs involved. Pivotshare keeps a fixed percentage of your incoming revenues (unclear how much exactly). Free to use.

Won’t it be simpler to have just a single website that could work everywhere? Responsive web design technology does exactly this. With the gaining popularity of smartphones, More and more websites are accessed via mobile devices. Websites that aren’t optimized for mobile browsing scare away visitors. Responsive web design can be a solution to this problem.
What is Responsive Web Design? A website that is designed to established standards laid down for responsive web designing will be able to adopt its design and layout to fit the specifications of the device calling it. It does this by dynamically adopting to different screen sizes and by reformatting the positioning and look of the constituent elements of the website.

A screencast is a digital recording of a computer screen with audio narration. Screencasts can include telestrator (‘John Madden pen’) annotations. Narrated slideshows include audio recordings synchronized to images without hand-drawn annotations. Screencasts and narrated slideshows can be created with two kinds of tools: 1. Browser-based: Create an account on the website and use a modern web browser like Google Chrome or FireFox to record, save and share it. 2. Client-based: Download and install software on a computing device to record and save. Via Baiba Svenca, Rosemary Tyrrell, michel verstrepen

From Responsive Design to Adapative Content... Makes sense ! #seo
"There’s a huge underserved population today who are consuming content on their phones and we’re giving them a crappy experience. We’re telling them, “Here’s how the web works for you: You have to pinch and zoom your way through sites that were designed for a much larger monitor, you’re going to get errors and the fonts are going to be really tiny.”
A great piece on the importance of having content that is viewable or playable across all devices . Matmi CEO Jeff has been pushing the "content should belong to the user and not to the device " mantra for a while.
