Yes, the consensus suggests that there´s a, let´s say, overwhelming plethora of video sites on the web; most of them aggregate videos from the main stays like Youtube, a few of them allow people to submit and edit their own, and others are mere accoutrements to social networking sites. Feedbeat shoots to be something a little bit different.
Essentially, it´s an embedded flash player that lets you create your own personal viewing channel. You can collect and create video playlists from all over the net; videos are added via a drag and drop interface; you can share your embed code with others, and watch videos picked by your friends and mates. Adding videos is a breeze: either add them to the player as you´re surfing the web, or bookmark pages via the built in playlist manager or bookmarklet. Other features include a video scanner, a Myspace badge, video preview function, media RSS support, and sequential looping. Feedbeat makes it much easier to create a video playlist without having to upload and swap out videos as you would with YouTube. You can browse through other people´s channels; currently, the most popular one´s include clips of Dr. Who, there´s a channel dedicated to French politics and there a few that sport celebs and frivolous people. To join you´ve got to sign up; but this site is worth it.

additional notes by site”s operator:
thank you very much for this article. please allow me to underline the fact of RSS and even XSPF support. this enables viewers to choose out of a big bunch of playback software like “democracy”, “firant” and for sure the upcoming adobe media-player. so, at the end, the flash-players feedbeat provides are only the tip of the iceberg and therefore more intended as a service (maybe for inspiration) than as an ultimate answer. -sascha
