Nicovideo
http://www.nicovideo.jp This website is in Japanese but you can use one of the translation websites to change to English (I like Babelfish myself) but almost impossible to navigate around unless you read Japanese This is a video hosting site ... just upload your videos 'Youtube-style" ... the magic is that you are able to add chat over the uploaded video. Imagine working with a group of language students ... then this could be a very powerful tool, asking them to translate in chat over the video. I'm hoping there will be an English version one day. |
