New Features

  • Share on Twitter
    Now you can share your videos on Twitter! Just click the Share icon in a video to launch the Share module.
  • Channel Notifications
    Channel owners now have a new section in their channel settings to optionally receive emails for when someone posts a message to their shoutbox and for when someone subscribes to their channel. Adding moderators to your channel also now has an approval process, where both parties will receive emails when the request happens, and when the request is approved.
  • People Subscribed To Me
    There is now a new page within your My Contacts where you can see what users are subscribed to you and what they are subscribed to (likes, videos, and/or appearances).
  • Featured videos for your group
    Have any videos you want to show off in your group? You can easily add any 3 group videos to feature on your group homepage.
  • Featured videos on your profile page
    Have any videos you want to show off on your profile page? You can easily add any of your 3 public videos to feature on your profile page. Try it now.
  • Removing Video Thumbnails
    Everytime you upload a video, you get 12 thumbnails to choose from. Now, a month from the day you upload your video, we will automatically remove any unused thumbnails. But you will always be able to upload your own.
  • Improved Searching
    We've been waiting for this. The toolbar search is now much more accurate.
  • 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!
  • 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.
  • 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' box in the top navigation bar, 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
  • 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.
  • It took most of the day but we've finally finished our big upgrade of all the hampster wheels that keep the lights on at Vimeo HQ. Uploads have been re-enabled. Things are still a little wonky in some areas and we're working quickly to clean them up.

    Thanks for your patience!

    • Ayz Waraich 1 year ago
      Excellent.

      Umm, what was the big upgrade? :) Or behind the scenes stuff?
    • Andrew Pile staff 1 year ago

      wtf? Does Vimeo have a Ninja application I should've applied for?
    • Jacob plus 1 year ago
      clearly you would not be qualified. a true ninja would not need to ASK for the ninja application.
    • Chris Gampat 1 year ago
      ^ revealed himself to be the ninja that did the moving for vimeo...and hence broke the rules of the ninjas

    • James Taylor 1 year ago
      Hi, I was uploading when the system went away, but now that video is missing - do I need to upload again or will it re-appear?
    • James Taylor 1 year ago
      Actually, I might have broken it - my history has the information about me tagging that video, but clicking on the link says "still processing"...
    •  
    • Wow. Phew, i thought you were gone or something - so does this mean that PRO/HD features are coming soon? :)
    •  
    • HannahMai plus 1 year ago
      even if you were not gone for very long... I MISSED YOU SO MUCH VIMEO!!! :D

    • OOgle Flix plus 1 year ago
      I suffered from Vimeo withdrawal! I drew the logo on every inch of every wall in my bedroom while muttering gibberish predicting the end of the world... but you're back, and I'm sane now! :D
