Tweet Sent out From FlipShare
Note:
The first time you share with twitter, you have to enter in your twitter username and password.
Video on Flipshare.com [ link ]
I don't see a way to embed FlipShare.com videos.
Here's the same video uploaded to YouTube.
Note:
The video you choose to share via twitter doesn't get hosted on twitter. No video does. It gets hosted on Flip's FlipShare site.
It would be nice if you could upload to YouTube or Facebook and send out a tweet with a link to either of those sites.
My Verdict:
Twitter integration with FlipShare is poorly implemented. If the only videos you can share on twitter are Flipshare.com hosted videos, I don't see this feature being used much, if at all.
It's a lot easier to upload to YouTube and use the social media sharing available there, or just share the link to the YouTube video on twitter yourself.
FlipShare Video editing software, Version 5.8, installation note:
Instructions say:
To install FlipShare:
Open FLIPVIDEO and launch "Setup_FlipShare" (PC) or "Start Flipshare" (Mac).
But the program name on a Mac is "Install Flipshare"
