I found a very imformative list of hosting sites a few minutes ago. I'm currently going through and testign them myself, but if anyone wants to help oiut, graba few and try it out. We need testing on it all before we can add them to the guide anyway.

I'm starting bottom first and found gigashare wasn't working just now. Perhaps someone can doublecheck it later.

I'm trying UploadHut now.

Someone check those links with me and see if they still work!

Hobbes · Posted: Wed Dec 14, 2005 3:44 am Post subject:

these two are the only ones that really seem to go quickly. They go REALLY quickly too. I think I may just add them to the hosting guide.

Hi!

I will do some of these at work tomorrow, I have nothing but time, honestly. Um, its not on the list, but FILE LODGE (www.filelodge.com) seemed really really good for my last vid. For an AVI file, it played it right away (no complete download THEN a play). Will post particulars tomorrow, but the weird thing is I started doing a list of my own yesterday. LOL.

PS- just would like everyone to know, my asshole tech guy at work prohibits me from installing anything on my work computer- which means FLASH...thats why, as of now, I am unable to view anything hosted on YOUTUBE (it uses flash). very annoying for me- prohibits games, web pages, etc. Just FYI.
