Open Video – What is Open Source Video all about?

As 2009 unfolds, three things about online video become clear:
1.) With over 17 Billion monthly videos watched in the US alone (according to comScore) and steady month-over-month growth, video is here to stay.
2.) Video exhibits classic long-tail distribution — while YouTube remains the dominant player, video is rapidly moving from destination-sites to the rest of the web, and from Media and Entertainment into the enterprise, with millions of sites streaming video as the new mode of communication.
3.) The conversation is shifting from the technological aspects to the value aspects: not how to build a player or convert between formats but, rather, how to foster audience engagement, drive business values, increase collaboration, and monetize these billions of streams.
Flash Video Obsolete with HTML 5? Open Video Standards

HTML 5 <video> tag – It’s the end of the world as we know it and Flash feels fine? No, probably not. with the prophesied coming of HTML 5 and the video tag, Flash could be on the very short end of a very long stick and the new messiah for online video could take the world by storm. In fact, without some severely significant reasons to continue using it I daresay that it could go the way of the Dodo in regards to online video. I mean seriously. Within a year or so we simply won’t need it (though Microsoft will probably either drag their feet or screw up the IE adoption of HTML 5 so maybe that’s 2-3 years).
Now, let’s not just automatically write off the old bird shall we? I mean it’s got a lot of things going for it, it’s the old flame we want to keep ignited, not just a Flash in the pan. We’ve been through a lot with her and well, some of us love her. Simply put, she’s everywhere. Everyone is using it, almost everyone has the plugin installed, and nearly every internet user has some idea of what it is so even if they don’t have it installed they’re more than happy to install it.

Microsoft has launched their new Google competitor, bing, complete with video search and everything.
The thing is, I don’t know what all the hype is about. People are talking about it like it’s going to be some actual competition to Google and from what I can see it’s nothing special.
