Insulting as it may be to our film-splicing predecessors, the task of manually uploading a video from a camera to a card reader to a computer to YouTube has become an unbearably burdensome process for some folks.
Eye-Fi has taken that excuse right out of their hands with its automatic-upload wireless memory cards. Today Eye-Fi announced that users can now directly upload their videos to Picasa Web Albums, Photobucket, and SmugMug (in addition to YouTube and Flickr). With a choice of five video-sharing sites and more than 20 photo sites, winging over a Mother's Day video greeting to Mom come Sunday is easier than sending flowers, and only a hair more complicated than a phone call.
The 4GB Eye-Fi Share Video card ($79 list) and the 4GB Eye-Fi Explore Video card ($99 list) can both bypass your home computer entirely to upload videos. Whereas the Share works through trusted wireless networks, the Explore can also upload through hotspot access (over 10,000 Wayport locations in the U.S.). The Explore also automatically geotags your videos with location/time information. Both are on sale nationwide.
