Hi!
Just a few minutes ago, I released my GNU Generation project, TinyOgg,
which
is a Free Software service designed to get rid of Flash technology in
playing
audios and videos over the Internet by converting them to a new standard
multimedia format called "Ogg" which is supported by all major browsers
except
Internet Explorer.. Of course no one in this group is using it. ;)
This service has very good technical advantages, such as the ability to
play
videos without installing any plug-ins, and to download them directly to
enjoy
it off-line. See: http://tinyogg.com/about/faqs/#advantages
In addition to the technical advantages there comes the
ethical/political ones
: I encourage everybody to use it because it's one way we can, and must
take
to keep the Web open and free for everyone, no single company should be
allowed to control a very widely-used technology such as playing audios and
videos, but unfortunately Adobe is monopolizing the whole thing.
Contributions from GNU Generation members are very welcome: you can
design a
logo, a new interface, you can fix a bug, you can add a feature, you can
spread
it! Please contact me to arrange something.
Please use this service and spread it, tell your friends and contacts,
I'll be
grateful!
