Converting YouTube to Ogg Theora is not a new idea, but our service is different for several reasons:
This service started as an idea and a development project in the Free Software Foundation's GNU Generation.
GNU Generation brings young people into the Free Software community. It finds and arranges to-do tasks for them depending on their skills and experiences. Every young man and woman will find an exciting thing to do for the good of the community and for the sake of freedom inside it. Osama Khalid, the founder of this service, was chosen as the first GNU Generation Member of the Month in August 2009.
Are you at the age of 13-18? Please join GNU Generation!
Thank you for asking, but no, we don't. However, we welcome community contributions of fixing bugs, adding features, translating the interface and, most importantly, promoting TinyOgg.
We encourge you to donate to the Free Software Foundation and Creative Commons, two organizations that fight for our right to share and learn. Like all non-profit organizations, they always need our financial support to spread and fight for the great ideals of collaboration.
All videos on TinyOgg are hosted for 48 hours. We believe that most users are going to watch the video only once, so there is no need to the "for-ever hosting" feature, which is going to be costly.
However, some users may want to link TinyOgg videos in their emails, web pages and so on. They are still able to do that, because TinyOgg will show a reinserting message in the video page.
Please also note that you can always download our videos to watch, host and/or attach them off-line.
