With the large size of files that are being thrown around the web these days, especially with different video formats, and of course sites like YouTube, and YouTube-like functionality on MySpace. It's hard for most sites to reliablely transfer the video content on to their site, not to mention the "copyright" problem. So a multi-part form post isn't gonna do it for a file that is 60 megabytes in size. Why not take it back to an "old skool" technology that was intended for a "richer" client-side experience? Like a Java applet! Well MySpace has done it again.....
You probably want to surf to the "Videos" section of your profile on MySpace. Then enter the slew of tile, description, and tagging information, agree to their terms, and click continue. Then you'll get to another screen that will look like above. Click the link that the red circle is identifying. The "awesome" text in the link is a shout out to some peeps that I used to work with at this company (I used to work for that company when I was a broke college student). That word was entrenched in the company culture, I believe it is still part of the company culture today. I wonder if the origin of using that word came from the Venice surfer/skateboard culture.If you run Windows XP SP2 and have Java 1.5.0 or greater installed you'll see something like this...
