[...] As a new television channel owner we are experimenting with our programming, and our promos. We are excited to share Star Wars Robot Chicken on Techlife TV. This is the full 26 minutes, including some pre-roll with Seth Green and his team, as they introduce each segment. We had recently covered Star Wars news that George Lucas is thinking about some new Star Wars movies. I am glad he not only put his weight behind the Robot Chicken project but was willing to appear as himself in it. [...]

Andrew – I like Yuxt…very interesting. I don’t know if I love the interface as much as you do, but I think that Chime.tv could certainly offer a “less is more” approach for those who desire it.

I do agree the drag and drop and URL prefix are both easy to use features.

Thanks for the comment.

I will stick to Yuxt. Unless Chime.tv clean up their interface.

Apparently Yuxt guys have been around for a while with much better interface.

With simple drag and drop itâ€™s much easier to create collection there. Adding video into Yuxt is even easier: by simply adding yuxt.it/ in front of the url of the page ( http://yuxt.it/http://www.dkworldwide.com/techlife/archives/2007/06/04/love-20-beats-down-love-10/ )

One other thing to add…

I see this as Tivo for web video. It lets me take video from any network (website) and save it in my channel or playlist which I can watch at a later date. And of course share with others.

Nice job taking that model. But it leads me to another feature request: Keyword Search as I mentioned, but then “build a channel” where new videos that show up with a keyword search saved as a channel alert me via RSS that my channel has new content.
