Seeing all the legal problems YouTube is facing I don't see Yahoo painting a big fat bulls-eye on their backs anytime soon. It's really too bad seeing that so many cameras allow you to record short video clips too. I’ve been wondering for a while when there going to allow videos.

That is probably one of the only ways Yahoo could actually compete with YouTube in terms of watching videos. Dean wrote:

I like that you can set images to be private by default...now I'm just looking to see if there is a good software program out there that I can use to sync pictures. I’m about to signup for it.
