Viddler is an interactive online video platform for uploading, managing, viewing, and tagging/commenting on videos. Viddler's paid business service includes secure uploading and viewing, support, a customizable Flash or HTML5 player, the ability to create a private online community, video analytics, file encoding, and player branding. Other features include video contest management, subscriptions, opt-in advertising, in-timeline tagging/commenting, and webcam recording. ==History== The company, headquartered in Bethlehem, PA, was founded in November 2005 by Robert Sandie and Donna DeMarco (Vice President). Viddler was created by a team of developers, designers and architects from companies such as RackSpace, IBM and Macromedia. Viddler.com launched in December 2006 with in-line commenting and tagging features. In April 2008, the company launched an application for Facebook, created by social developer Kyle Slattery. It replicates the majority of functionality from Viddler.com into Facebook. The Facebook app displays the user's videos and the daily highlights and latest videos from Viddler. Viddler no longer provides a free service for non-commercial users.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 Viddler’s New Tag-Based Advertising System )〕 In 2010, Viddler began focusing less on video enthusiasts and self-generated content hosting, and more on business verticals, including corporate communication and training, education, and publishing.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 CrunchBase Profile )〕 Following a 2011 decision to discontinue new personal accounts, Viddler recently announced it was going to close those legacy accounts, giving users the option of opening a paid account or downloading their existing videos.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://money.cnn.com/news/newsfeeds/gigaom/articles/2014_02_07_viddler_gets_ready_to_delete_personal_videos.html )〕 In 2013, Viddler was issued a patent "for displaying a video and an overlay or tag" as used by video asset administrators and viewers.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://patft.uspto.gov/netacgi/nph-Parser?Sect1=PTO1&Sect2=HITOFF&d=PALL&p=1&u=%2Fnetahtml%2FPTO%2Fsrchnum.htm&r=1&f=G&l=50&s1=8,392,821.PN.&OS=PN/8,392,821&RS=PN/8,392,821 )〕 The company announced a partnership with personalized video programming developer (IRIS.TV ) in February 2014,〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.streamingmedia.com/PressRelease/IRIS.TV-and-Viddler-Announce-Partnership_35677.aspx )〕 followed by the announcement of a new HTML5 player, called Arpeggio, in April.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.streamingmedia.com/PressRelease/Viddler-to-Release-New-HTML5-Video-Player_36135.aspx )〕 In addition, Viddler now directly supports Adobe's (Digital Publishing Suite (DPS) ) for creating tablet and smartphone apps.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.streamingmedia.com/PressRelease/Viddler-Enhances-Support-for-Adobe-DPS_36278.aspx )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Viddler」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
