Twitter's video hosting from Posterous

San Francisco, USA - Earlier this year, Twitter also acquired Posterous, a blogging service that features video-hosting. But since it's taken over, no significant things done Twitter to Posterous.


Twitter does not officially involved in the video sharing service, but instead rely on third-party services. But it seems to be changing, Twitter may offer video services.

As reported by TechRadar, this speculation comes after Twitter bought Vine, a start-up video sharing.

Currently, if you want to tweet tweep video to his followers, they can post them on YouTube, Vimeo, Twitvid or other similar sites. The video will be screened on Twitter without the need for extra clicks.

It is not clear what to do Twitter by deciding to buy and run a video-hosting. Some analysts argue, Twitter just want greater control over video content on its site milling.

Twitter itself has taken a number of steps to take back control of its features. Previously, Twitter allow third-party application developers to interfere.

One example, photo hosting. Twitter used to rely on companies like Twitpic and Yfrog for hosting the user's photo, tweeted a link to their site. Now, Twitter photo-hosting service running his own by holding Photobucket.
