VideoEgg & TypePad Strike A Deal

So VideoEgg is going to provide TypePad [a SixApart company] users with the ability to upload videos to their blogs. Now VideoEgg isn´t the only company doing something like this. My buddy Eric Rice´s company, audioblog, does that as well. But the difference is VideoEgg is only focusing on video, I´m tempted to say that´s a good thing but you never know. Here are a few snippets from the press release that went out Tuesday.
“VideoEgg, Inc., a leading innovator in web-based video publishing solutions, today announced a major step forward in making video blogging simpler, by integrating its signature offering, The VideoEgg Publisher, into Six Apart Ltd.'s TypePad service, currently one of the most popular blog platforms on the market. The VideoEgg Publisher is a Web-based video publishing technology that makes it easy for users to capture, encode, upload, and share online video...
...For the first time, TypePad users can painlessly upload videos to their TypePad blog without the headaches of encoding formats, export settings, incompatible player versions, long uploads, or complicated video software.”
So I think it´s pretty cool and I predict we´ll see more entries by startups into the video publishing / tv over ip world. [as if we haven't seen them surge out of the woodwork already].
