It has occurred to me more than once in the recent past that it would be neat to have a service like Instapaper, but for videos. A post appeared on Hacker News today announcing Instafilm, which seems poised to fit the bill after the site becomes more stable (I’m getting a lot of errors at the moment, probably due to server overload). In the comments section of the HN post, however, a number of alternative sites were mentioned, including:
- Instafilm
- VHX, which is still in a closed beta
- Squrl
- Wacchen
- Rewindle
- Reeplay.it, also currently in a private beta
- Lideo
They all appear to be free, at least for the basic service. Some of them, like Squrl, also have companion iPhone/iPad apps. Are there any others you’re aware of? Let me know in the comments!
