Where is the best place to host 1hr video of my department's weekly seminar series? Not necessarily live streaming. Goals: free, open, accessible.... Would love suggestions.
Better to do video, or separate as slides + audio? Video has more info, but guessing slides + audio might be more likely accessed? Could put slides + audio on slideshare, and/or release audio as a podcast?

for recent Web 2.0 talk I did, I did all options you mention - there's slides + audio on SlideShare, video on Google Video, and the audio is available separately on Archive.org, as well as I made a (one time) podcasting wrapper for it

archive.org also accepts video, and has the benefit of being the most trustworthy repository

Looks like Youtube has eliminated its 10 minute limit... I hadn't realized that. Scivee is specializing in videos about published papers, which doesn't always fit our current need.

Great suggestions all around, thanks everybody.

I guess in the science video space there's JOVE, SciVee (which are both specialised for presenting research) and that new one, um scienceplanet or something... ah, Academic Earth (which is for presenting lectures, I guess) http://friendfeed.com/e...

Vimeo certainly worked for Deepak's talk. I think the upload size limit they give is enough to upload one 60 minute video a week. SciVee sounds awesome, too. I would suggest uploading it to as many places as will accept it--multiple points of discovery/redundancy from site failure.

I like Vimeo a lot, if you're not wedded to the idea of a "science space". Video quality is its major selling point.
