Youtube / Podcast Mash-up
A few weeks ago I wrote a simple perl script that would download youtube videos that I liked and convert them to avi so I could watch them on my television or laptop. I got the golden idea to create a odeo-style (podcast aggregate) that would retrieve your youtube videos via RSS, convert them to mpeg4 (iPod format), and deliver them as a video podcast to iTunes or whatever service you wish. This would allow you to use the simple functionality of youtube to create and upload videos and easily deploy the videos and people can watch them wherever they wish.
I need your help though! Below are a list of things I could use to make this idea real:
1) A name for the service
2) Graphics designer
3) Alpha testers..
… more ideas to come.
