Yahoo! Video, created in year 2006 has a new relaunched version. According to Yahoo! Video blog, more features have been added to the site for the sake of the users, i.e. bigger file size that one can upload, supports a 16:9 cinematastic player, and a “myweb” section has been provided. However, there are things that I think that they should improve, such as to private the videos uploaded which temporarily Yahoo! Video not allowed, for some users that want to share their videos with peers only, this is a needed version. Also, video type and format should include the RMVB file type, I see that this video file type is gaining ground as more and more quality movie are available in this type, and when compare to MPEG 1 or 2, this type of video file appeared to be much smaller, about one-third of the size.

One of the features that sound very interesting is what Yahoo! called an “experimental release,” an ability to see other people watching the same video, assume that their Webcams are also linked to the service. This is what I don’t understand at this moment, but carefully evaluate Yahoo! Video, I found that in order for users to embed their favorite videos to other sites or blogs, the “Embed Code” will only be appeared after the video finished playing.
