EatLime, the online video and file sharing service that was previously reviewed here, has gone on and released a new service call Twitvid.com that presents users with an easy way to post their videos to Twitter.
The service doesn’t just post a link to a video when the user tweets, but it uses the patent-pending EatLime technology to upload and stream the video in real time, in a way that a person’s followers on Twitter can start watching the video immediately while it’s still uploading, making it pretty much a live stream.
Users can upload their videos to the service either through the web interface, through their mobile phones (by sending an email or MMS), or through the service’s API.
Just as with other services like twitpic, the user can just login with their Twitter username and password and start uploading and tweeting their videos. Upon logging in, each user also gets an email address that they can use to email their videos directly from their mobile.
The system’s API also helps open it up, making it easy for other companies and developers to integrate the service into their own services and products.
Among future plans is the ability to resume uploading if the connection is lost, enabling users to resume uploading from the exact point where it stopped.
EatLime, the company behind Twitvid.com, is a 5 person San Francisco based company, founded by Mohammad Al Adham from Jordan and Adil Lalani from Pakistan.
