"Robin Good: Google Search Stories Video Creator is a free web service which allows you to specify up to seven queries that utilize one among Google search engines, and which then creates a video clip of those searches."
This one is from the Who Asked for It? file. While it's cool to create a video of Google searches and then add dramatic video, I'm not sure who would want to view the result. Nonetheless, you could excerpt the video to use in another, more-interesting video . . .

The BBC has followed up its recently-launched BBC News connected TV app with a counterpart for BBC Sport – a precursor to an Olympics version coming for this summer’s London games. So far, the app focuses only on Formula 1, comprising a number of video clips repurposed from BBC Sport’s website, as well as live race coverage and on-board car cameras. Later, the BBC wants to offer 2,500 hours of live Olympics coverage through such a service. Via Andy Bull

Le lecteur multimédia libre VLC a célébré en février son passage à la version 2.0. Réussite française, ce projet qui a plus de 10 ans d’existence est disponible pour Windows, Mac et Linux. VLC 2.0 apporte de nombreuses améliorations (cf. notre article récapitulatif) avec notamment une bibliothèque qui rappelle iTunes ainsi que l’accès direct à des flux audio et vidéo d’Internet ou à ceux d’un réseau local, par exemple. Le portail 01net a publié un dossier : VLC 2.0 : le grand guide en vidéo avec plusieurs 11 tutoriels thématiques vidéo pour comprendre le fonctionnement, des fonctionnalités de base et avancées du lecteur multimédia libre.

Robin Good: DragOnTape is a great video curation tool designed for music fans who want to put together mixtapes to watch back on their mobiles, or that can be played at parties and events in a full-screen, back-to-back fashion.
DragOnTape which works both on the desktop and on your iPhone, allows you to easily search for any YouTube video / video mentioned on Twitter / Soundcloud clip and then to add it to your video-mixtape-collection.
You can drag and drop video clips on a timeline, move their order and position (albeit that's not always too easy), trim clips and make clips transition smoothly from one to the next with no breaks.
Obviously, just like I did in this test curated channel, you can bring any type of video content on any topic you like. These are 27 curated clips on content curation itself: http://www.dragontape.com/#!/4991003 ;
The playback interface is simply wonderful. Once you understand a few nuances it's impossible not to fall in love with it.
As I have said, the full compilation can be played back-to-back, while you have the option at all times to see the full playlist index and to jump to any clip you prefer.
Once completed your video mixtape can be easily published to the DragOnTape portal, as well as embedded into any web site or blog or shared with a direct link.
P.S.: While this is a great video curation platform that can be used for any topic, the spontaneous community of curators on DragOnTape has developed a spectacular trove of curated music mixtapes with some truly golden gems in there.

Excerpted from the article: "How should I host my videos for SEO purposes? Is it better to use YouTube, Vimeo or third party hosting?
All hosting solutions have their own set of advantages and disadvantages:
Third party and self hosted: -Easier to get video rich snippets for your own domain; - Can customise video player; - Can build links back to your domain through embeds.
YouTube & Vimeo: - Gets the content in front of more eyes; - Content will invariably rank well (albeit often not for your domain).
There are 3 major functions for video from an SEO perspective: 1) Ranking, traffic and conversions; 2) Brand impressions and notoriety; 3) Links.
Approach 1: Video for Ranking, Rich Snippets and Conversions
#Location - Include the videos on a page targeting a term likely to receive a video rich snippet; - Ensure your videos are being built into a page where there are a variety of other media types; - Include only one video per page.
#Hosting Either self host your videos, or use a paid secure hosting solution (options detailed at the end of this post).
#Embedding - Ensure the content cannot be embedded outside of your own domain; - Embed the content with HTML5 and JavaScript or Flash, but not an iframe.
#Video Sitemap Submit a video XML sitemap to Google Webmaster tools.
Approach 2: Video for Links #Location As with all bits of link bait, put the content somewhere visible, with good internal linking structure.
#Hosting - Self-host the content or use a third party solution; - Allow the video to be embedded anywhere; - Create a CNAME for your video files.
#Embedding - Embed the content in HTML5 and JavaScript or Flash, but not an iframe; - Include social share buttons next to the video player; - Customise an iframe embed code for users to embed your content.
#Video Sitemap Create and submit a video sitemap per the ranking, rich snippets and conversion model.
Approach 3: Video for Brand Impressions & Notoriety....(check out it for information about this)
