Ever bought a major product and never took advantage of the 14 day price guarantee? I sure have and now there is a free web service that will help you look for a better price from the product you just bought within a scheduled amount of time. Some retailers guarantee that there price will be better than other retailers to. So all you do is go to Price Protectr, enter the url of the product(s) you just bought from that retailer and click 'look it up'. That's it, your done! Price Protectr will then remind you via email if the price has changed. You though have to enter other retailers that sell that product if the place you bought it from offers a price guarantee for all retailers selling that product. Overall it's a great service and you should check it out when you next buy a product over $100.

What's Better than Youtube?

No Comment - Post a comment

Youtube has long been the king of online video sharing which is why Google bought it this year but that's becauase most of the other video sharing sites have never gotten enough publicity. There are 8 different sites that are competing with Youtube and most of them have been rated better when it comes to performance, features, and specifications. Blip.tv was the best because the audio quality is great and the video is pretty good, but much better than Youtube. The reason why this site has such good video quality is that it lets users upload the original high-quality file as well as Divx Stage 6. Youtube uses the old Flash 7. Many of these sites that I will tell you about share the revenue of the advertising to it's uploaders and people who link videos to there blogs. Check out Rocket Boom news. It adds spice and comdey to the news. Blip.tv also allows you to download videos on the site for ideal playback on an iPod or cellphone. This is not a huge site yet, as in it doesn't get much viewers so stick to Youtube if you want to get a huge audience for now.
Blip.tv, Brightcove, Metacafe, Revver, and Veoh will all split advertising revenue with you right down the middle. Youtube does none of these. Revver has an extra feature that will make non-video uploaders smile. They let you earn 20% of the revenue from videos you've decided to share on the Revver page or your blog/website. The remaining 80% is split between Revver and the uploader.
