Veeple.com - Embed Video with Anything

Veeple uses Flash to give users a wide array of tools that they can use to make interactive comments and suggestions directly into any video. Just upload a video and then add text, speech or thought bubbles to a video just for fun or for the purpose of adding additional information to a video. Insert web links directly into a video, allowing viewers to find out more or link to the MySpace page of the person in the video. You can also insert an eBay link to any given product that appears in the video, allowing people to buy a specific item that appears. The possibilities for Veeple are virtually endless but perhaps the most interesting potential application is as a non-intrusive advertising tool that would allow advertisers to insert links into videos and thereby help to monetize services like YouTube.

“People place interactive spots, VeeSpots, into any video creating videos with a more personal, family or social context. Think of a VeeSpot simply as a point of interaction in a video. Using VeeSpots, a person can instantly link a video to a friend’s MySpace or Facebook. A VeeSpot, for example, can link a video of a Ferrari to the official Ferrari web site. An eBay Seller uses an eBay VeeSpot to link buyers directly to their auction. Do a search from the video. Link to Wikipedia. Etc.”

While there are a few other players in this space, Veeple seems to have developed a cutting edge technology that will make it a major player in the newly emerging video advertising space. Being able to insert links within videos in a non-intrusive manner will allow many companies to finally start turning a profit.

Will VeeSpot’s technology become one of the chosen methods for advertisers? There are other players in this space and it will be interesting to see how it evolves.
