THE FLIQZSTER ENABLES ANY SITE TO BE
A VIDEO SITE
New Service from Fliqz Brings Video
to Any Website Without Driving
Viewers Away
SAN
FRANCISCO – September 14, 2006 –
Fliqz, the pioneer in
community-based video sharing, today
introduced the Fliqzster, a free
tool that allows video to be added
to any site without the loss of
control and hours of waiting
associated with other video sharing
services.
“In
creating the Fliqzster, we continue
to meet our promise to change the
channel on video sharing – this time
by enabling any site to bring video
capabilities to its members,” said
Benjamin Wayne, Fliqz president and
CEO. “By using the Fliqzster, a
site can now offer its users video
functionality straight through their
own site, not a third-party’s.”
The
Fliqzster supports major video
formats with files under 100MB. The
tool has a high quality playback and
allows an unlimited number of video
files to be uploaded and posted.
“Fliqz’s community orientation,
strong visual quality, and fast
turnaround fits in well with our
community of travel bloggers,” said
Alistair Watters, founder of
TravelBlog.org, the third largest
travel site in the world. “The
Fliqzster is perfect for our members
who often post from remote locations
and don’t have the luxury of waiting
24 hours to get the code they need
to embed their videos. And of
course we appreciate that when our
community of travelers want to
upload videos, they don’t have to
travel off our site.”
Sites using the Fliqzster can also
choose from a variety of colors and
orientations to better match the
color scheme and layout of a
particular page.
To
embed a video link, users simply
select a video then click to receive
both the permalink and a snippet of
code for embedding that video into
any blog, classified, webpage, or
social networking site.
The
Fliqzster taps the resources of the
Fliqz platform, which features
better ease of use, video quality
and social networking than any other
video-sharing site on the Web.
Unlike other online video services
that focus on broadcasting to the
masses, Fliqz focuses on
communities, families and
friends—making the service
particularly valuable to websites
with a community-based focus.
