Dan’s Tech-n-Stuff Weblog

If you have a video file that you’d like to share with the world or just a friend or two, you have a new option: Flickr.

This option will only be available for its pro members, but that membership only costs $25 per year and gives you:

• Unlimited uploads
• Unlimited sets and collections
• Access to your original files
• Stats on your account
• Ad-free browsing and sharing

Throw in the new ability to upload videos too and that fee is more than reasonable if you have a lot of pictures or videos you want to share.

The new video features gives you:

• Video uploading for Flickr pro members
• The ability for free and pro members to view public video clips
• Video limits up to 90 seconds long and 150MB maximum in size
• Controls to make videos private, visible to friends and/or family, or public
• Seamless integration of videos into the photostream, along with photos
• The ability to share video clips individually, as part of a set, or embed on third-party Web sites
• Tagging and geotagging capabilities for videos
• The ability to search videos by tags and descriptions
• The ability to upload videos directly from camera phones
• The option to view videos on a full screen
• Licensing options to mark a video as ‘All Rights Reserved’ or designate a license through Creative Commons (http://creativecommons.org/)
• Application programming interface (API) for third party developers to create programs or services using authorized video submitted to Flickr
