Partnership Between PBwiki and Fliqz Brings Free Video Capabilities to World's Largest Consumer Wiki Farm

EMERYVILLE, Calif., July 10 /PRNewswire/ -- PBwiki, known as the world's largest consumer wiki farm, has partnered with Fliqz; provider of the most flexible, plug-and-play video solutions, to enable video uploads on PBwiki. Users of the popular site can now include video content when collaborating with their friends.

"When we learned that our users wanted a way to upload video right from their desktop we started investigating our options and Fliqz quickly became the obvious choice," said Ramit Sethi, co-founder and vice president of Marketing at PBwiki. "Their service has helped us offer a drop-dead easy way for our users to get their videos online."

Video capabilities let PBwiki users interact in a new manner. In addition to the other wiki collaboration features on PBwiki, users can now upload and share videos to accompany the wikis. To add the video feature, PBwiki users just click "Edit Page" >> "Insert Plugin" >> "Video" and then insert their video. The individual uploads are limited to 200MB, but video uploads do not use any of the provided wiki storage space. As part of the partnership, Fliqz has allowed unlimited storage to PBwiki members.

"Wikis represent a powerful forum for collaboration in which video is emerging as a key form of content," said Benjamin Wayne, president and CEO of Fliqz. "Fliqz gives sites of any size the ability to offer professional video uploading, playback and management in minutes, with minimal technical integration."

The Fliqz Video Service gives any site the ability to offer video and as a result, promote their brand more completely. Currently, the Fliqz customer network consists of more than 300 sites in the travel, family, classifieds and blogging/emerging media spaces.
