Glogster Brings YouTube Videos, Live Webcam Media to Site
Posted on: Tuesday, 19 August 2008, 12:00 CDT
Glogster.com, the new Web 2.0 phenomenon that provides consumers with a revolutionary way of expressing their mood, feelings and ideas, today announced the launch of two new capabilities on its site. Gloggers will now be able to bring YouTube videos and webcam media into their Glogs simply by pasting in a URL into the import section of a Glog, increasing the opportunity for creativity, self-expression and ease-of-use on the unique platform.
Users are now able to add video, audio and photos in their Glogs simply by including a link while creating their Glog. Files no longer need to be uploaded, making it extremely easy to include a favorite YouTube video, song or photo from the web. Additionally, Gloggers are now able to grab original media from their webcams - including video, audio and still pictures, and integrate it into their Glogs; giving Gloggers access to content that is more original, creative and unique to the individual Glogger. These new features expand the creative options for Gloggers and save time, bringing their final creations to completion faster.
With the new capabilities, users are not only able to instantly add YouTube videos to their Glogs, but to also decorate and personalize them. Gloggers can use the styles, frames, and sizing capabilities on Glogster to fit all videos and webcam media into the style of their Glog, making the self expression on Glogster practically boundless.
"Glogging is like a scrapbook page that I can share with all of my friends and other Gloggers - it's like I am part of a big group of people who want to share their thoughts and ideas," said LadyLia, top Glogger. "Now with the Webcam and YouTube tools, I can do even more stuff -I love seeing my friends' videos from their webcams on their Glogs!"
Glogster has been receiving remarkable feedback, with users clamoring for more ways to express themselves. These new capabilities are the first addition of many that will be part of Glogster's effort to continuously improve and enhance the Glogging experience to provide Gloggers with unlimited options for self-expression.
