YouTube allows users to record directly to site
YouTube quietly added a new feature today to its popular user-generated video site today called Quick Capture, which allows users to record video directly to YouTube from webcams plugged into their computers. This new feature eliminates steps in the process of producing video content, making it easier than ever to publish videos to the web.
The Quick Capture tool uses an Adobe Flash Player API to connect to the user’s webcam.
