Flickr Video and more
So I started to see several Tweets yesterday about being able o upload video to Flickr. Of course it all sounded like there was still testing going on but the process was really smooth. I for one have been waiting for video upload capability, it was one feature that Flickr lacked compared to Picassa and my .Mac account.
Here’s the good news. Flickr has now made the video upload feature official. Anyone with a Pro account can upload 90 seconds of video amongst their photos. Why only 90 seconds? The powers that be at Flickr came up with "…the idea of “long photos,” of capturing slices of life to share". Now we all remember our time in front of the class giving a report and 60 seconds is a long time let alone 90 of those nerve wrecking tick tocks. Need inspiration? Just google one minute film and you’ll find plenty of help. 
The second part of this good news is that there is a bonus for everyone. To help with the potentially large video file, Flickr is doubling the size of photo uploads to 20MB per photo for pro members and 10MB for free accounts.
Go on now, start uploading those videos and don’t forget to let me know what you think of the service in the comments section here.

OMG! I’ve been waiting for this feature for a while. I guess now there really is no reason not to have a PRO acct.
How much does a PRO acct cost? This is interesting! Might have some ideas to implement it to my blog.
In the words of the Flickr team. Holy Smokes! That’s Cheap! Just $24.95 for a 1 year pro account.
