Dabble, a site that makes it possible to search, recommend, rate, discuss and be sociable about video hosted anywhere on the the net, has come out of private beta and launched for public use. Dabbler Lisa Rein sez,
Dabble collects metadata detailing the location, authoring, licensing
information, and user-generated tags associated with hundreds of thousands
of short video clips. Users visiting Dabble will see a search box allowing
them to do a simple keyword search for online video clips. Their results,
including both amateur and professional video, will be pulled from hosting
sites all over the web. Users can then begin to collect their favorite
web videos, adding new videos to their collection at will as they surf
other websites.Already, hundreds of hosting sites exist where users can upload their own
videos to the web and thousands of independent sites. Dabble solves the
problem of navigating through all these videos, no matter where they are
hosted.
(Thanks, Lisa!)
