Twitter + Video = Twiddeo

I'm pleased to say that as of tomorrow I can happily sate another short term desire - to have Twitter with video! Just read a post on Mashable talking about a new mashup between Twitter and some video site called v:social called "Twiddeo" due to launch as soon as tomorrow - not sure how it'll work, but it stimulates my nerd gland. From the screenshot it looks pretty web based, but even so it could still be quite fun. Anything that gives me another way to abuse Rags is tip top in my book.

What I really want is photo integration though - why can't someone build Flickr integration into Twitter? Even just picture messaging functionality into Twitter would be great (and don't start about Pownce, it sucks). Anyway, check it out on the link above.

Patrick,

Actually, our guess is that aside from logging in the first time to provision the unique address, most of this will be mobile based. Part of the really coolness with Twiddeo is that every user that authenticates gets an email address to send 3GP files into it, and then when users on mobile click on the links in the tweet, the system will serve the 3GP back up. No want on our part to try to tie such a non-web based service to a website!


Thanks,

Thanks for your comment Brad! Look forward to giving it a try, sounds like you've come up with a great way to make it mobile. Any chance of emailing me a private login so I can have a play before it goes live? :)
