vimeo is flickr for videos

Vimeo is out of private beta, finally (very clean simple logo). Check out the SNL skit Taco Town. Upload, share and save your videos for posterity with rss galore

20 MB upload limit per week (kinda small), reset every Sunday. So far editing sometimes has been buggy (Firefox stalls hard but eventually ok). The "Edit" screen could use some more feedback, it now reloads to the same page which isn't very user-friendly. Some videos don't have the thumbnail feature, the default thumb is ugly (update I think quicktime clips have thumb generated later, maybe manually by someone). The service could use a rating system, the current favorites page is just a snapshot of videos favorited by users

Browsing concert tag right now, found a couple of Interpol posts.

Update
B points to similar service that's been out for a minute, YouTube. Comparison post

Update
Taco Town mirror here
