Twango.com - Get App Happy

by Siri

"Twango is for those of us who like to have all their media-- their photos, their videos, and music-- readily accessible to be shared, distributed, and catalogued."

"The new webcam widget even allows you to record a video clip from your webcam and embed it in your blog, send it to friends via IM, or email. As an added bonus, the service is absolutely free and don't worry about usability, its quite headache free."

"Why it might be a killer: Twango's user friendly interface provides an easy alternative to file sharing. Plus it's free."

Instant Upload & Share of Webcam Videos

by Ilan

"Twango, my favorite and reliable media (video, audio and photo) sharing site has come up with yet another feature, the much awaited and needed one, instantly share webcam videos with friends. Twango’s webcam widget recognizes webcams of most brands and all you do to share videos is just start recording with your webcam."

Finding A Home For Your Podcast

" There are lots of sites that offer limited free podcasting services but the best site on the web for posting audio has to be Twango.com. Its’ an emerging Youtube style site but allows you to post video, photos and most importantly audio. Twango is like a youtube meets flickr with an added audio function – it’s free and like youtube offers you free server space for limitless storage and enough bandwidth (uploading time) to post at least an hours worth of quality audio a month."

"When you’ve created a channel, uploaded your audio you will then see that twango has a very handy set of tools on the right hand navigation bar. These will allow you to embed your audio in your blog and create a feed for your podcast."

Record, Embed, Share, Comment – Online Video Only

by Svetlana Gladkova

"The widget automatically recognizes webcams from popular hardware manufactures (Creative, Logitech, Apple). It has a very simple and user-friendly interface to make video sharing as simple as email."

"And comments is actually what makes the new widget something unique - I would even use the word "revolutionary" here, no matter how hard I try to avoid it usually. The thing is that your readers can leave video comments to your embedded video - right in place."

Twango launches webcam widget

by Chris Van Patten

"Like Flixn, Twango’s widget does not require membership for use of the widget. Twango does add the ability to save video to a Twango account if you are a member though - making it a great way to easily create short videoblogs."

"...a quick and easy way to get your message across to family, friends, and co-workers!"

Introducing the Webcam Video Widget

Record and share instant videos from your webcam. With our new webcam video widget anyone with a webcam can instantly record videos and share them via email and embed them in blogs. The widget provides a video url and html-code for you to copy and paste into email or your blog. The widget automatically recognizes webcams from popular hardware manufacturers such as Creative, Logitech and Apple and allows users to record a video with a single click.

Add video comments in-place. Other people can add their own webcam video comments right in place. Have your friends leave video greetings for you on your blog. Send video email to a group, and get video replies.

The webcam video widget is free and Twango membership is not required to use the basic features. However, Twango members have the advantage of storing their webcam videos in their Twango account, and managing video comments left by others.
