Reviews<br />Overall, most of these reviews were all positive and say that vimeo is a great social networking tool for sharing videos over the web. However one reviewer gave a negative review based on the fact that users are not allowed to upload commercial advertisement onto vimeo.<br />

Access<br />When accessing this site I encountered no problems<br />Easy process to register and it’s free<br />

Similar Websites<br />Other sites like Vimeo are YouTube, Miro, and Joost. <br />I feel out of all these sites that Vimeo is the easiest to work with and most efficient site. <br />Unlike YouTube where it can take time for videos to load where as Vimeos videos load immediately.<br /> Also sometimes videos on YouTube can not be as what they are described as and can be fake videos.<br />

12.
Educational Use<br />This site could be used educationally <br />if a student is doing a documentary movie they could post it for others to see and get feedback on what people thought of their movie. <br />In business it can be used by workers sharing collaborations of plans they’re projecting to a boss by sending them a video if the boss is in a different location than their office. <br />Finally it can be used at home for your own viewing pleasure. <br />I use Vimeo to upload snowboarding videos of myself to see how my riding is doing and to all hear what others have to say about it.<br />

13.
CREATION<br />The users control everything on the site by uploading their own videos. <br />Users uploading their videos are able to show people all over the web their creations via Vimeo.<br />
