ImageShack Adds Video Sharing Capabilities

ImageShack, a photo sharing site used by people to host their images to be displayed on their social networking profile pages has added video uploading and sharing capability

ImageShack is claiming that their video hosting feature is more advanced than the ones offered by Youtube, Revver and others, since ImageShack will pre-process your video on your system instead of first uploading it to their servers and then processing it their. The pre-processing involved file compression which could reduce a file by nearly five times its original size making the file uploads a much quicker and less bandwidth consuming task.

Users can also add tags to their videos and can make them private or public. Like the photos, the videos also come with website sharing code to embed them on other sites and blogs.
