  • Tool #57: Vimeo: Video sharing

    Share HD video
    Share HD video

    YouTube is great for looking at and sharing video. But sometimes, you want more control over your distribution. With a Pro account (about $60 a year) at Vimeo, you can send out an email to people with a URL and a password. They don’t have to sign in to vimeo, or become a member. They can just watch the video online. And the videos can remain private to only those people you send emails to. You can also restrict which places can put up copies of your video (embedded) if you do decide to make the video public. There are also options to download the video as well as stream it. HD, or high definition, is the new standard in online video. Much better than previous versions.
