IP Democracy: Click.TV: Another Video Publishing Contender


ipvideo.jpgCourtesy of TechCrunch, this cool new video publishing upstart called Click.TV. So far Click.TV offers only a demo of things-to-come but its application seems very dynamic, allowing web sites to not only publish and share video but also tag it so that users can search within the video for specific segments.

The demo shows how a “comment matrix” overlays the video so that posted comments can be searched or used as guides to find only those parts of the video that a user wants to watch. It also gives an example of Engadget’s live blogging of Steve Jobs’ keynote at MacWorld, which jives with the video.

Founder Mike Lanza offers a video tutorial for Click.TV. Although it’s very cool, Click.TV looks a little more complicated than most Internet users can manage. Still, this is just one more sign that video publishing and video communications are about to pop in a big way.
