Flickr, the popular picture sharing website, has now expanded into allowing users upload and watch videos from their website. Unlike YouTube, Flickr only allows videos to be 90 seconds long and 150mb. The length of time is meant to just share a video with friends, not try and upload an entire motion picture, like many try to do on Youtube the company states in their Community Guidelines that,
"Flickr is all about sharing photos that you yourself have taken. Video will be no different and so what quickly bubbled up was the idea of “long photos,” of capturing slices of life to share."
Unfortunately only Flickr Pro members will be able to upload videos to their site, but both free and paid users can view the video.
Seems like a great service that will all you to share your videos and pictures on the same site.
