We needed a single place to post our videos from Hackers & Founders, especially as we launched the Co-op, our take on incubation. (You'll be hearing more about that shortly). So, we decided to eat our own dog food, and use one of the startups we were working with in our incubator: http://VidCaster.com.

Within a couple of hours of receiving the DVD from Naval's Hack your Funding process video, it was up and streaming on their service. They also grabbed all the other video content we had on vimeo and transferred it over without any problems. The following week, they streamed 1TB of video on our videos alone. Not bad for a company that had only raised seed funding before that.

They are simply outstanding, and I'm not just saying that because they are in our incubator. Their service really does rock. Clean interface, amazingly responsive founders that have been running their own video businesses for years, and built VidCaster to scratch their own itch.

BTW you can look at all the pitch videos for our startups on http://hackersandfounders.tv for our upcoming "Not-a-Demo-Day" this Thursday night. It's powered by VidCaster. And, one of the VidCaster founders shot all the videos for us as well.
