Team Ziddio - The Blog

PHEW - its been a long week but a great week here in Ziddioland. Yes we’ve been negligent in updating the blog - but that’s only because we’ve been so busy we haven’t had a chance to update it (yeah that’s the ticket, thats our story and we’re sticking to it!).

So what new things have we been slaving over since our last update back in 2006 (sad isn’t it) well new on the site there’s;

• Non-contest Upload - Ziddio set out to be a competition driven user-generated site because we wanted to offer really unique experiences that only we could hook our users up with like getting on TV…well it dawned on us, there’s plenty of great video out there that might not fit into some of our competitions so we opened-up the flood gates, bring on your videos. Find the “Upload Video” button in the header
• Search - ahhh search, no longer will you have to hunt around our galleries looking for that one video you wanted to show your Uncle Bob.
• Favorites - think of it as a bookmark - for videos, this feature we think goes hand in hand with search, save all your favorite videos to your account and have easy access to them. look for the heart icon in the video toolbar.
• New Contests - wheee we had a bunch of contests close recently, and what fun would it be if we didn’t replace ‘em with some new contests. Check out Date-a-Model and Urban Legend: Redux.

Oh yeah…and we’ve sort-a been working on this little thing with a small company called Facebook, yeah you might’ve heard of them:-). We’re excited about Facebook Diaries its an amazing little competition and partnership we’ve been cooking up with the premiere social-networking tool. I could ramble on about what the partnership entails but why not let our PR get some credit - read the press release for all the details.
