Collaborative Video Editing
I came across a very interesting partnership last night-- Kaltura and the New York Public Library. Kaltura takes posting video and creating playlists to another level by integrating fair use images from the NYPL digital collection that can be used in user generated collaborative video projects. This is an exciting step forward in the world of user generated content. I'd like to see Kaltura integrate with the open source database project, Freebase.
