Vimeo, a web video site that’s often referred to as YouTube’s rival, has just launched support for Android and iPhone mobile devices, and that real live apps are coming up very soon. Should this be big news to you? It depends.
Viewing YouTube videos on the iPhone is easy enough. Vimeo, a flash streaming site, will now also work in iPhones and on the Google Android mobile OS platform. For now, only selected HD videos will be available for viewing, but Vimeo plans to open submissions to Vimeo Plus members — and uploaded videos will also be viewable on iPhone and Android setups.
Vimeo videos will now show in a special mobile-adapted page whenever you view them on your iPhone or Android mobile device, but eventually a few fully-dedicated apps should be available for purchase and download to further improve viewing experience in the near future.
So now if you can’t find it on YouTube, it might be on Vimeo.
