7 Best Ways to Share Videos on Twitter

June 14, 2009 | Comments

videosharingJust like there’s a big competition between photo sharing sites for Twitter, there’s also a good competition in video sharing. Even tho’ there’s yet to be a single video sharing site for Twitter that has managed to attract the same number of users as TwitPic, these sites are clearly gaining in popularity. Hopefully we will get Twitter video sharing services integrated in our favorite desktop clients soon. I’ll give you a quick list of 7 best ways to tweet video. Some of these even support photo and video sharing, allow webcam recordings, and track video mentions across Twitter.

  • TwitVid.io is really simple to use. Log in with your Twitter credentials, choose a video file and post. Works pretty much the same as TwitPic.
  • Twiddeo is a powerful but simple service that let’s you do one thing very well: Twitter updates with Video. Upload from the web, your cameraphone and record from your webcam.
  • TwitC is a great tool for sharing photos, videos, and a myriad of different file types with Twitter, it’s a multipurpose hosting service for Twitter.
  • TwitLENS is another tool that handles both video and photo sharing. What I like about it is that it supports Twitter OAuth for secure login.
  • TweeTube allows you to share webcam videos, YouTube videos, photos and website URLs. The site looks neat.
  • 12seconds helps you update your friends and family with short video clips that you record with your webcam, mobile phone, or upload. It uses Twitter OAuth for secure login too.
  • TwitVid.com is almost the same as TwitVid.io.

Do we need this many video options for Twitter? Well, probably not, but the competition is always good. Which one do you prefer?

    I had no idea there are so many video sharing tools for Twitter. But then again - what's the point? We can just use one of the so many video sharing sites and just use the short URL and paste to twitter.
