Video-sharing service YouTube rolls out mobile upload, which lets you post a video via email from your video cameraphone.
Similar to Flickr’s upload by email, set up your YouTube upload by email profile and get a secret email address. Then, take a short video on your phone and send it via MMS to that email address. You can set the default privacy level and category in your profile; and create two separate profiles (and get two separate email addresses) for different types of movies (like for public cute cat videos and private cute baby videos). YouTube currently supports uploads from Cingular, Sprint, T-Mobile, and Verizon. But the video quality will not be good as it expects.

TeamSlide has just been launched has many of the features of the other services (WebEx, Placeware, GoToMeeting), is much easier to use (no plugins or other software for host or attendees) and is a fraction of the price. It does require a server side easy installation.
A normal use of WebEx, Placeware, GoToMeeting, etc. is a sales and marketing call. The host, or presenter, sets up the call using WebEx software. The attendees click a link in an email at the scheduled time, and everyone is joined in a virtual meeting. The host is able to share applications (powerpoint, browser, pdf etc.) and make the show running.
A drawback of all of the existing services is price and the need for browser plugins for both hosts and attendees. WebEx and Placeware both have a pricing range of $300 – $375/month, and GoToMeeting is a minimum of $50/month. Killing part of these services are the usage costing. On the other hand Teamslide doesn't require a software or plugin on the both parties (host or attendees). It is powered by Web 2.0 or Ajax technology which is blazing fast that means the host or attendees require just a browser with javascript support.
Teamslide is targeted for web presentations. And they have developed their own plugin for Microsoft Powerpoint. . Which actually converts your slides within a click. It generates a zip containing the slides so that you can upload it right away. This service is similer to Thumbstacks which i've previously mentioned. You can say it's a limitation or a feature of Teamslide that it is meant for Slideshows
