- Recording tool captures any video playing on your screen

- Online service to host video clips
- Video clips clearinghouse and distribution outlet
- Vodmaker

VoDMaker is a screen recorder capable of recording any video clip being played on your screen, no matter what kind of player, format or DRM system used to play it back. Vodmaker records audio and video simultaneously, either grabbing the full screen, a selected portion or an auto-selected image area. Recorded video can be saved with any of the available AVI codecs on your system, including DivX, XviD and Microsoft MPEG-4 v3. The only limitation is a maximum 10 frame per second recording rate. Nonetheless the frame rate appears low compared to broadcast-quality the recordings are more than acceptable. A low-cost competitor to TechSmith Camtasia, Vodmaker offers a lower grade solution, which cannot compete in terms of features and recording frame-rates at a fraction of the price.

- FotoTime Products

A personal online album, FotoTime is a venue to upload photos and video to the web for viewing by friends, family, coworkers, or others. FotoTime provides several tools to organize materials, including groups and subgroups, photo order, size and use of text and html to describe albums. Users can also customize their albums with thumbnails, backgrounds, transitions and captions. The software supports Macs, Java and ActiveX uploaders, the upload from cell phones or email, and by using the FotoAlbumPro software. Users can also use the images to have them printed on mugs, t-shirts or other media. FotoTime is available free for a 30-day trial.

- ScanR

ScanR is a utility for converting digital images coming from mobile phones into usable Acrobat .pdf files or digital faxes, while making it easy for the user to also eliminate image background noise, soft focus, and the poor picture alignment common to mobile phone pictures. The magic is achieved by ScanR sending out your selected images to its online servers and executing the assigned task in a matter of minutes before sending the corrected digital images back to your mobile phone. ScanR can be used with mobile phones with at least one megapixel of resolution and it is compatible with several mobile service providers. A free trial is also available.

- ClipShack

New online clearinghouse for independently produced video clips. ClipShack automatically converts video files to Flash during upload, making them lightweight and viewable on most any browser and computer platform without having QuickTime Player, Real Player or Windows Media Player installed on your computer.

- ClipCandy

ClipCandy is a site that allows home videomakers to post video clips online and to charge a small price for people who want to view them. Accounts are free, and registered users can search for videos by category or by keyword, viewing clips for prices ranging from $0.10 to $0.20 each. ClipCandy is a great resource for anyone to distribute their videos and get paid for it. However, ClipCandy is less professional than its competitors and is still in the beginning stages, with very few clips posted. The site also only supports Internet Explorer and Netscape browsers on Windows-based platforms.
