JussPress is a unique online video (and photo) hosting and distribution service. JussPress converts uploaded videos to Flash and automatically generates a snippet of code that can be embedded in your blog or site page to display your video in a fully streaming format. This means that your video clip starts to play almost instantaneously avoiding viewers the need to first download and then view the clip. JussPress also organizes your videos by year, month, week, day and more. JussPress makes also use of a handy mini-tool that once installed sits on your desktop. By simply dragging files to that icon they are immediately uploaded to the JussPress servers. JussPress supports .mpg, .avi, .mov, and .wmv video file types, all digital cameras popular photo formats, as well as full compatibility with Windows, Mac, Linux, and Unix computers. The free version of JussPress is limited to 1,000 photos and 10 videos (maximum length for each video is 2 minutes). If you want to bump your video hosting capacity and get rid of the ads that appear in the basic version, just donate $5/month to JussPress and have no more limits on number of video clips uploaded.
