AOL to host and search video

AOL UncutAOL.com has begun searching video from online sources and will soon host video as well. AOL UnCut (currently in open beta) will compete directly against YouTube, Google video and the other online free video hosts.

Videos of up to 5 minutes can be uploaded to the service, and they are then converted to the Flash 8 format (same as YouTube). Like YouTube, videos are rated, commented and shareable. Also, any video may be embedded into another website via a code snippet. The only significant difference between AOL Uncut and YouTube is that YouTube supports tagging, whereas UnCut doesn’t.

Look for a launch in the next week.
