Microsoft’s YouTube goes live
Microsoft’s YouTube style site came out into public beta this week. It is called Soapbox. It is not terribly distinctive but it helps round out MSN’s set of blogging and other personal expression tools. It is expected to be a crucial part of Microsoft’s new Live.com initiative and is not using Windows Media but used Flash 
An upstart video search site called ClipRoller has invented a very customizable results page. Say there are six topics you are interested in. You can set up search-term channels, and bookmark the page. Every time you wish, you can get a picture of what’s new across multiple video sites.
Soapbox lets users upload video to share, as well as tag them so that others can find them easily. Unlike YouTube, the site lets users watch videos on one side of the screen, and browse and search videos on the other half.
