Have you ever thought you had what it takes to direct your own movies? Maybe, you just love taking video of your kids. And what’s the thrill of making a movie if you can’t share it with the world…or at least your immediate family and friends? Grouper Networks has just taken photo-sharing to the next level. With the creation of their free software called Grouper, people are now able to share their videos over the Web. This unique service continues to grow in popularity. Since the launch of Grouper 2.0 in late 2005, over 50,000 videos and photos have been shared over the Web. Now, you too can share your video with the world for—here’s the best part – FREE! Grouper allows you to perform unlimited fast and easy batch uploading. You can send links to your friends who can watch and download your videos. Want to chat about your video with family and friends? Well, you are in luck. Grouper allows you and up to twenty-nine of your nearest and dearest family members and friends to gab in real time. Have a MySpace, Friendster, or blog page? You can even post your video and have it play right to your page, or download it to your iPod or PlaystationPortable. You don’t have to worry about any size restrictions on your video uploads either because Grouper doesn’t have any. Streaming previews of your movies are limited to three minutes, however if members have the bandwidth, they can download your full movies. To ensure that its customers aren’t using the free software to share copyrighted materials or perform other unlawful activities, Grouper’s multimedia application prevents the distribution of protected music or video files and limits the number of people with whom users can share their content. To use Grouper, you must download a small application from their website. Once you have installed the software, you can import video from your camcorder, create short movies ("Groovies"), and then choose to either share them with the public or keep them private. Video sharing is easy and fun! Are you ready for your close-up? Lights! Camera! Action!
