Text and video by West Coast Editor Steve Casimiro.
There are heaps of video sharing services, but for practical purposes it comes down to two, YouTube and Vimeo, and there’s a clear choice between them.
1. YouTube
If you want access to bazillions of viewers and are willing to sacrifice resolution, uploading to YouTube is faster, easier, and unlimited. The down side? Even the site’s “high quality” mode seems fuzzy, and expect lots of mindless comments.

2. Vimeo
Vimeo, on the other hand, limits your free uploads to 500MB and one HD video a week, but your work appears brighter, sharper, and better. The site is cleaner, the videos slicker, the environment closer to indie film fest than the street brawl that is YouTube.

Suffering from a Stanley Cup hangover while trying to find the right chemistry with a revamped roster, Chicago went 8-9-2 to open last season. The Blackhawks never fully recovered, as they barely made the Western Conference playoffs and lost to top-seeded Vancouver in the first round.

You tube is a lot easier but sometimes it takes so long to load.

I will keep that in mind next time i go camping in the great outdoors. This is the first i hear about Vimeo, but it looks awesome. All i need is a good pair of shoes, and a fun gadget to play with :) Thank you National Geographic

I prefer Youtube simply because of my video software hooks up to it easily. I don't like that it only allow 10 minutes and the song limitations also are bothersome too!
