New Features

  • Login and Join Vimeo Lightbox
    Clicking on most login and join links will now trigger a lightbox overlay where you can quickly login or join Vimeo and stay on your current page.
  • Daily Email Update
    You can now receive a daily email full of what's happening in your Vimeo world. Sign up is located in your notifications settings.
  • Converting time during transcoding
    Ted and Casey added a nifty little feature that will display the time remaining to convert your video during uploads.
  • Better referrer statistics
    Now we record every page that videos get embeded on, check it out in the stats section to the right of any video page.
  • Share on MySpace
    Everyone says they hate it, but everyone has a MySpace profile! We've added MySpace to the Sharing options.
  • Badge additions
    You can now add channels and albums to any Badge that you create. Yipeee!
  • New Hubnut Behavoir
    From now on, the Hubnut will not auto-rotate when it is loaded on a page. This will only affect all newly created Hubnuts, not those that are currently used on other sites.
  • Search Channels
    Now you can FINALLY search for Channels. Use the 'Search' magnifying glass on any page, make sure its set on 'Channels', and search away!
  • Posting to Flickr
    It's back! You can once again post your videos to Flickr. You can also post albums. Do this by clicking on Share and navigating to the "Post this..." tab.
  • Expanded Tag Browsing
    Clicking a tag from a video will bring you to an improved tag browsing experience. Now you can browse videos with that tag in your videos, all videos, your contacts' videos and more. Vimeo members who use that tag most are also noted.
  • New Avatar Feature
    Clicking any "avatar" aka user portrait will bring up a menu of actions you can take regarding that user. Use this menu to add contacts, subscribe to videos, and send messages to users you see on Vimeo
  • Sorting Channels
    Now you can sort channels in the Channels Directory. Just click on the headers like 'videos' or 'subscribers' and it will sort accordingly. We're one step closer to searching for Channels! Yay!
  • Spam Filters
    We've recently rolled out some great new spam filters that we think will help keep spammers off of Vimeo. Of course its impossible to stop ALL spammers, so if you ever see any send an email to Help@vimeo.com and we'll take care of it.
  • Add Multiple Email Addresses
    Now you can add multiple email addresses to your account and then sign in with any of them using the same password. Just set one as your main address, verify it after we send you an email, and you're all set.

  • Get an SMS when someone comments on your clips!

    by Jakob Lodwick September 26th, 2005

    I created a fun feature for myself, and I loved it so much that I made it public. Want to get an SMS on your mobile phone whenever someone comments on one of your clips? Now, you can do it - just fill out these fields at the bottom of your "Edit my info" page (which is linked from your home page):



    It's funny - getting a comment sent right to my cell phone, the moment it happens, really makes me feel connected. Now I'll never be alone!

  • Upload Vimeo thumbnails to Flickr

    by Jakob Lodwick September 22nd, 2005

    We added a cool new feature, which several of our users had suggested. If you have a Flickr account, you can automatically post a thumbnail from a Vimeo clip. Take a look at this video; it's really easy!

  • Submit by email / add to favorites

    by Jakob Lodwick September 19th, 2005

    We're pleased to introduce a "submit-by-email" feature for Vimeo. Each user gets a custom, secret email address which he or she can send clips directly to from a mobile phone (or any other email client). Your address is listed on your home page when you are logged in.

    Please try it out if your mobile phone shoots video, and let us know if you have any trouble. We know that Sprint PCS and T-Mobile work, so we're especially eager to hear from people with other carriers. Thanks!

    Also: you can add clips to your "favorites", which can then be viewed at www.vimeo.com/user=your_user_name/favorites ... just click the "Add to Favorites" link under any clip!

  • Weekly limit raised to 20 megs!

    by Jakob Lodwick September 12th, 2005

    Hi everyone. We made a quick change: you now get 20 megs of disk space each week, up from 8 megs.

    Additionally, some of you were getting "you've used all your disk space" messages even when you were well under your limit. This has been fixed.
