You Tube on your Blackberry

In recent times there has been a surge in the number of users viewing videos on the Internet through mobile devices. Although the trend where people started streaming videos over the Internet on personal computers itself is a well known fact, this trend has always been on a climb since when it was introduced. Now, there is a certain urge for many to view videos on the move without having a large storage capacity along with them. This has prompted many a software developer to introduce video buffering modules into their own platforms. Some companies have succeeded and others have not yet fine tuned such applications. The Blackberry Storm, the flagship model from RIM is technically loaded to the brim with features. Some however can be improved and a little improvisation tells us what is actually possible. The You tube application launched from Google is one such application that proves to be one of the finest video streaming devices that is available for a mobile device.

Google’s You tube application ensures that videos are buffered at a speed that is yet to be discovered on standard included in the platform viewers. The application is so easy to use and makes the site on the mobile to be viewed in pretty much the same way as it is on the computer that it has come to have a huge fan following. Inbuilt video streaming modules often ask for account creation and other such information before one can get started, but in Google’s you tube application for the Blackberry Storm, it ensures that any video can be streamed and viewed as easily as on a personal computer. The application enables the use of even some little features like rating the videos, commenting on videos etc. These features ensure that any video can be searched for and rated depending on viewer interest. There is also the option of uploading own videos onto the You tube server, that enables files of a size less than 20mb to be uploaded to the server without any fuss and with high speeds ensuring easy data availability. One can also subscribe to channels using the Blackberry storm incorporated with the You tube software and also maintain favorites.

The main idea of the You tube application developed by Google is to create an application that allows users to view videos on the Internet at free of cost. The application is available at present only for the Blackberry Storm and there is a free download link that can be easily searched for.
