Zudeo Video Community

Zuedo is the code name of the new Azureus project for high definition movies and videos downloading. Azureus is well known for their BitTorrent java based Client for Peer-to-Peer file sharing. Now they have introduced Zuedo, mainly for full length high definition movies. All you need to do is download their small client and start downloading all the movies you want.

The good about the service is that all the movies are full length, well produced with high quality, and its all legally submitted by the content owners. You can't find any short home made movies, it's not the place for that kind of stuff. If you are a producer or a publisher of original content, you can upload your stuff through the client for the world to watch.

The bad thing however is that the site is still small in content (this is what happens when you restrict for original stuff only!) and it still needs to get more publicity, which is what I am trying to achieve here. Another bad thing, for me at least, is that once I start downloading anything, the client start eating all my available bandwidth. Theoretically, I have a restriction on the bandwidth for around 25 kb, and I am paying quite a lot for my 256 ADSL Connection. But I still lose it all for a single download, and I find my self forced to shut it down. I am still trying to figure out whether I am doing something wrong, and I sure hope I am.

Still, I like to open it before I go to bed and chose my next morning movie before I head to work. Tomorrow is the first day of our working week by the way, God help me.

ViewDo shows you how to do it!

few years back in my college days, a friend told me he has a graduation to attend and he doesn't know how to wear a tie. He said he looked for it on the net and couldn't find anything. I thought its kind of funny. Apparently, I was too naive. ViewDo does it for you. The site is a media library of explanatory videos showing how to do things, like wear a tie, create a network cable, roll a sushi and anything else you can think of.

It is the kind of target video community for people who want to share their knowledge (by video), or for people looking for that kind of knowledge. What's more is that you can download the videos to your iPod, Play Station Portable, or any other media device. The site is still kind of new, but if it lives up to what it promise, this could be a real hit.
