Once uploaded, users can make videos public or share them only with specified users such as friends and family.

Through its video embedding feature, Big Upz allows users to stream videos, both personal and public ones, across the Internet on other Web sites. For example, users can insert their favorite Big Upz video into their Myspace profiles, blogs or personal Web pages.

Using a subscription feature, registered users can subscribe to one another’s videos, creating personal broadcast networks where users stay updated on the latest from their favorite video creators.
Watch Your Favorite Videos
