You would have to be living quite deep in a cave to not understand the power and draw of sites like YouTube, Dailymotion and other similar sites where videos are the main currency that users are exchanging with one another and the world at large. These so called Web 2.0 sites have taken the world by storm and in the process they have left quite a few of us webmasters wondering exactly where and how we fit into the picture. Blogs are definitely a strong force, as well, but the ability to actually let your visitors contribute content in the form of video is certainly a much more powerful incentive for them than merely offering the ability to leave a written comment. Sites that understand the evolution taking place on the web today have begun to see the power of a script like ClipBucket. There are other options, of course, but ClipBucket has some essential ingredients that can make it a terrific choice for those who want to be able to bring their site to the next level and really get their users having fun with each other and coming back for more. One of main attractions of this particular software package is the fact that it is so easy to use that nearly any webmaster, no matter what his or her level of experience is, will be able to take their and develop it far further than ever before using what this script allows you to do.
One important point that is extremely important to hit first is the fact that ClipBucket is one hundred percent open source and free. This is great for two reasons. For one, you can have it without needing to shell out any cash up front which leads directly to the second reasons: you can have it customized by the team who designed. That means you can have a Web 2.0 site that features all the goodies that makes the big sites popular while still looking very uniquely your own. There are plenty of themes and templates available for those who want a more mild type of customization, but knowing that you have options is always a positive thing. The power of AJAX for commenting, favorite and ratings means that your users are going to be able to get involved. You can, of course, give them their own profiles when they sign up and let them have different levels of access so that you can keep good control over your community as it grows and reward those special users who do extra for the site with all sorts of goodies. You can have videos and a ton of other offerings for them to enjoy right out of the box and there is even a mass uploading tool that is going to help you get all the videos onto your site without having to sit there for hours doing them one by one.
