Library clips

Vodpod is social bookmarks for video’s, grab them from any video site and bookmark them in your vodpod, show them in a widget. Not only do you have a user space, but you can also join group pods.

I bookmark audio files in Podchains (you can bookmark any media file), but it won’t play within Podchains, you also get a widget, and space to host your own media URL’s from the media files on your PC.

Other choices are DivShare and Box.net to host files, share files and play them in widgets…but not within a social network.

With Podchains you actually bookmark the file, with Vodpod you just bookmark the web page the video box is hosted on, so you are not actually saving the media file itself.

See my post, The Podcast Listener, where at the end I link to lots of ways to download video URL’s into video files…also check out similar video social networks.

Download

Here’s an example post from the The Chris Pirillo Show, notice that you can download a YouTube clip directly from the post, it seems to use Google Video somehow, not sure how this works.

It seems you can download YouTube clips by using Democracy, this is a RSS Reader, Podcatcher, Video Player in one.
You can even use VideoBomb to download YouTube clips.

Also check out The Channel Channel, as a way to view one minute previews of Internet Video Channels, before you may wish to subscribe…also see PodcastPromos.

huminity - primarily an IM chatosphere where you connect to people in a SNA kind of way, now they also have blogs…could this be ideal for a closed system like the enterprise…check out their blog for more.

IMified Twitter - post and receive updates

mail2twitter - post to Twitter by email…yeah, I can use my mobile phone email…see more.

rss2twitter - automatic posting of your feed content to Twitter…see similar ways.

xFruits - RSS to Voice, and Mail to RSS are two newbie bricks, the first converts an RSS feed into an audio file, same ground as Talkr, Odiogo and others.
The next brick enables you to read your unread email as a feed in your RSS Reader, they suggest using their other brick to turn this feed into a PDF, all your unread email as a PDF, snazzy…also see RSS2PDF.
