Online Ore: Vimeo.Com

Apr 12, 2010 by Aaron Rubman

This week’s vein of online ore can be found at http://vimeo.com

Vimeo is a high definition, community driven video sharing site.  While most video sharing sites limit the quality or length of the clips you upload, Vimeo allows the full 1280×720 resolution supported by HD TVs and monitors.

As with other video sharing sites, you can embed your favorite clips into your own website, indicate which films you like, and leave comments for the video creator and the other community members who like their work.

And speaking of community, Vimeo’s is highly collaborative, creative, and encouraging  - with their blogs and forums specifically set up to highlight ideas for new collaborative and individual video projects.

Scott Stiefvater, the cornerstone of online video production here at MB/I tells me,

“The thing I like most about Vimeo is the absence of a Vimeo watermark on the uploaded videos, and my impression is that the video resolution is superior in general to that of other video sites like YouTube.”

Tell us what you think of Vimeo!
