Yuxt.it! Discover, bookmark, share and watch online video!

September 28, 2007 · Leave a Comment

Two application developers launched Yuxt, a video bookmarking tool that allows users to add their favorite video from numerous hosting sites to their personal collections as well as search, download and share video content quickly and easily.

Yuxt is an online bookmarking tool that allows users to choose among three different options to save video.

One of the options is to type Yuxt.it/ at the beginning of a web-address of the web-page with an embedded video clip. After typing Yuxt.it/ press enter; a video will be displayed on user’s personalized page. From there it can be added to user’s permanent collection located on the right hand side by convenient drag and drop.

The exciting feature of Yuxt.it/ is that it can fetch a number of different videos from one location at once. For example, there are five videos on one page—by typing Yuxt.it/ in front of the web-address and pressing enter all five of them will be displayed on user’s personal page. The entire process takes a couple of seconds.

It makes you wonder how revolutionary SAP’s A1S product can be given the conservatism of the company.
