Earlier today Veoh had once again applied the 5-min previews rule … this time, it’s down to 20+ minutes. Who didn’t see this coming? Raise your hands … don’t be shy … it’s not your fault for being naive … I mean hopeful. I’ve watched a once-promising service go from unlimited viewing length, down to 1 hour, down to 45 minutes, and now down to 20 minutes. Recognizing a trend here? Whooosh … that’s the sound you hear as Veoh flushes it’s userbase down the toilet like some gold fish. This problem does not only concern regular visitors to the sites but also to whoever happen to embed their player into his/her sites (or blogs).

… drift by the windows … the autumn leaves of red and gold … ah, fall is here again, I hope you guys have a fun mid-autumn festival. You did remember to celebrate it right? Anyway, back to business. In trying to beat the holiday rush, we have have kicked our projects into high gears. With some luck, we should have 1 or 2 new working projects for you to feast your eyes and ears upon (depending on your access level) by Christmas time, so that you won’t be bored during the break. Yes, we’re that considerate. Unfortunately it’s mean more works for us. Anyone care to buy me a case of RedBull? 
If things go according to plans, we should be able to give a selected few a sneak peak at the current project during its alpha stage sometimes during the Halloween weekend.
While back at the ranch … we have removed the trailer section, it is now parted of the reviews/previews section. The traditional news section had also been replaced by system that pull feeds from several websites. This way, it will be more up-to-date since we don’t really have time to update them manually any more. If you have some better websites with newsfeeds that you want to consider, let us know.
