Edit And Share Video With Jumpcut

by Heather

If you’ve found yourself knees deep in Web 2.0 fun, here’s another website that looks very promising.

Jumpcut.com has just teamed up with search engine giant Yahoo! to make videos more available to users. Not one to be left behind I figured I’d register an account to see what it was all about.

Jumpcut allows registers users to create their own videos, complete with some basic editing tools for free. Their interface integrates with Flickr.com and Facebook.com so you can import images from your existing photo gallery or you can upload video from your computer.

After you’ve uploaded your video or pictures you can add music or other audio, as well as adding titles and special affects. (I don’t believe that any other website offers these types of editing tools for free or if there are, I’ve never found them.) The popular website Youtube doesn’t offer any sort of editing tools, just a place to upload them once you’ve finished them.

I’m planning on spending a little time there to see what they have to offer, and I’ll be sure to publish the finished product and any other feedback I have on this service. We’ll see how things go..
