Of course... sorry folks... I sell software tools ( IE toolbars, custom Office tabs, IE task panes, stand alone applications ) that are used primarily in marketing campaigns that utilize videos. The "big" product is currently the PVU ... personal video uploader ... that in two user clicks allows them to upload a video online in a custom HTML template and generates a link for them to include in to their email. The fancier version will allow the importation of already-uploaded Youtube, AOLVideo and other video services to "pull" the video into the template for them. The uber version does all that and also will take xls lists of email addresses and will automatically send the mail for you from within the toolbar or app. My other products are subsets of these three.
