New Features

Improved Searching
We've been waiting for this. The toolbar search is now much more accurate.
Daily Email Update
You can now receive a daily email full of what's happening in your Vimeo world. Sign up is located in your notifications settings.
Converting time during transcoding
Ted and Casey added a nifty little feature that will display the time remaining to convert your video during uploads.
Login and Join Vimeo Lightbox
Clicking on most login and join links will now trigger a lightbox overlay where you can quickly login or join Vimeo and stay on your current page.
Better referrer statistics
Now we record every page that videos get embeded on, check it out in the stats section to the right of any video page.
Share on MySpace
Everyone says they hate it, but everyone has a MySpace profile! We've added MySpace to the Sharing options.
Badge additions
You can now add channels and albums to any Badge that you create. Yipeee!
New Hubnut Behavoir
From now on, the Hubnut will not auto-rotate when it is loaded on a page. This will only affect all newly created Hubnuts, not those that are currently used on other sites.
Search Channels
Now you can FINALLY search for Channels. Use the 'Search' magnifying glass on any page, make sure its set on 'Channels', and search away!
Posting to Flickr
It's back! You can once again post your videos to Flickr. You can also post albums. Do this by clicking on Share and navigating to the "Post this..." tab.
Expanded Tag Browsing
Clicking a tag from a video will bring you to an improved tag browsing experience. Now you can browse videos with that tag in your videos, all videos, your contacts' videos and more. Vimeo members who use that tag most are also noted.
New Avatar Feature
Clicking any "avatar" aka user portrait will bring up a menu of actions you can take regarding that user. Use this menu to add contacts, subscribe to videos, and send messages to users you see on Vimeo
Sorting Channels
Now you can sort channels in the Channels Directory. Just click on the headers like 'videos' or 'subscribers' and it will sort accordingly. We're one step closer to searching for Channels! Yay!
Spam Filters
We've recently rolled out some great new spam filters that we think will help keep spammers off of Vimeo. Of course its impossible to stop ALL spammers, so if you ever see any send an email to Help@vimeo.com and we'll take care of it.
Add Multiple Email Addresses
Now you can add multiple email addresses to your account and then sign in with any of them using the same password. Just set one as your main address, verify it after we send you an email, and you're all set.

Take the Vimeo survey!

by Andrew Pile April 16th, 2008

As dalas mentioned earlier this month, Vimeo is getting bigger everyday! That means more than just our friends and family use it now. To help us decide what to work on next we'd like to learn more about who you guys are and how you use Vimeo. So, we made a survey:

If you have two minutes, please let us know what you think. It's hosted on a separate site so all answers are anonymous.

  Uhm.... there's no link/button when I load the page,...?!
  
  (I had to find it through pressing the tab button and pressing enter on whatever link was outside of vimeo.... O__O)
- Michael 3 months ago
  
  Yeah, it looks like the image that links to the survey isn't there.
- Lara 3 months ago
  
  ODDNESSSSSS
  it didn't appear at first, even after totally refreshing the page alt f5 thing.
  but like, i did the vimeo, and now it's there O_o
- Scruff_E_Guy 3 months ago
  
  Yup, it's there now... and completed
- Eugenia Loli-Queru 3 months ago

- Soxiam 3 months ago
  
  hmm... extrememly interesting...
- walt 3 months ago
  
  No!
- alionsonny 3 months ago
  
  Why? Does anything get better by making paid accounts? Do you feel better then :D
- Jenna Fox 3 months ago
  
  I don't want darned paid accounts! I'm a disability pensioner and could barely afford my cheapo camera. If the vimeo crew make paid accounts I wont be able to pay the fee unless it's like $5 a year or so. Then it will be just another flickr where the rich get extra features and my photo's start disappearing in to the void and can't get them back without making myself poorer. Please guys, keep this place fair and equal, don't give better features to those with the money to pay for them.
- Kevin Mosley 3 months ago
  
  It's not my site but I would think that everything about Vimeo would stay the same.
  
  If you were to pay then you would have access to extra features.
  
  I would want unlimited uploading. File size limits are not entertaining to me.
  
  Then with larger files you could have better quality video. Keep moving in that direction and you could have the best videos out there.
- Scott Hargroves 3 months ago
  
  Done. Yuppity yup.
- Daniel Gardner 3 months ago

- ed 3 months ago
  
  In saw this same survey format on Gawker. Is this from an app or is it custom code. I like how clean it is and think it would be good for our customer satisfaction surveys.
- Andrew Pile 3 months ago
  
  It's surveymonkey.com
- ed 3 months ago
  
  OK, I hadn't looked at that for awhile. To bad the data has to reside elsewhere for it. Thanks Andrew.
- andrew tanner 3 months ago

- AA 3 months ago
  
  What are these people talking about "pro accounts?" I already have a pro account. Deletion rights on everyone's videos, unlimited uploading... I have all that stuff already!
- Blake Whitman 3 months ago
  
  not any more!
- alionsonny 3 months ago
  
  Done, Folks!
  There's not much to make better on this site. It's the best video upload site these days. All other suck compared to Vimeo. I searched quite a time for a place to publish my musicvideos and my choice was stage6 before it went down. Then I found Vimeo, now I'm happy.
  Good soundquality, good Videoquality, nice Site! I love it!
- Jordan Beck 3 months ago
  
  Vimeo = #1.
- Andreas 3 months ago
  
  survey was easy to use. and I loved the liger.
- aaroneous 3 months ago
  
  I just hope Vimeo does not get too far away from the reasons why I signed up in the first place; a great place to view, share, and socialize with other great people.
- Ray Anderson 3 months ago
  
  Don't get too ambitious, especially about selling your wares.
- Pauly Forte 3 months ago
  
  I really don't see how my household income will help to determine what you work on next! But my singing in the shower, well, now I see.....
  
  and a 1.2.3.4
  
  Oh, but you and me keep thinking
  That the world's just passing us by
  
  Dont' want to spend my life, living in a rock 'n' roll fantasy
  Don't want to spend my life living on the edge of reality
  Don't want to waste my life, hiding away anymore
  Don't want to spend my life, living in a rock 'n' roll fantasy...
- Francis 3 months ago
  
  Hmm, not sure how vimeo can get better coz it's already kick ass the way it is now. I guess we'll have to see...!!
- Tiago Pierotti 3 months ago
  
  A good thing that you could work next would be in the search video engine enter an option for searching HD or SD videos. So we could find easily HD videos of our search without having to open it to know if it's HD or SD...
  
  Thank you Vimeo Staff for this AWESOMEEE Site!!!
  
  Peace & Love

  One thing I forgot to put in the survey, I'd like a way to tag my video's with a creative commons license.
- Brown 3 months ago
  
  oh and GPS tagging too
- Brown 3 months ago
  
  oh a deinterlacing option would be nice if it's not too much work. Often I can't see that my vids need deinterlacing until after they're uploaded
- Blake Whitman 3 months ago
  
  just deinterlace them anyway.
- Brown 3 months ago
