Add video comments to any website with BlipBack

blipBack is a video comment widget that allows anyone and everyone to receive video comments on their website or blog. The widget can be embedded on your MySpace, Facebook, or personal webpage and allows users to upload short video clips from their camcorder or webcam or even their video enabled mobile phone (if they're registered with blipBack). You can have the widget installed on your MySpace page for you by handing your log-in information over, or you can install the widget yourself with some simple HTML. Once users upload video comments they can also snazz up their clip with built-in effects.

OjingoLabs who created blipBack has also created blipBomb. While blipBack is for page owners who want to receive video comments blipBomb is designed for site visitors who want to leave video comments in a traditional commenting field. Users can record a video comment and leave it as a comment on any webpage that will allow users to embed HTML in their comment section. This could also theoretically be useful for video bloggers who want to upload a video post from their mobile phone while they're on the go. All you would have to do to post is shoot some video and then embed the HTML for it as your post, pretty quick and painless.

Both blipBack and blipBomb are currently in public beta and are available for free on OjingoLabs website.

Graveyard Shift has at least 15 levels, and it might even have some secret stages I haven't unlocked yet. They key to getting good at Graveyard Shift is learning to use ...
