YouTube continues to be the largest social video site online, but other sites such as Blip.TV and Vimeo continue to be around and attract their own audiences.

Vimeo has just recently announced that they will soon stop publishing videos on games, such as gameplays, since they do not conform to their core values. The question for the gaming community now is: where to go for videos on games.

Newteevee has analysed sites other than YouTube and compiled a list of recommended video hosting sites, which include: Gamevee.com, WeGame.com, Wipido.com, and Blip.tv. Each offers different advantages and disadvantages to game video enthusiasts.

Another specialist in their space is break.com, which targets almost exclusively a male audience, but excluding porn. When it comes to funny videos, ebaumsworld.com has a nicely focused collection.

We continue to monitor the specialisation and niche creation that is happening of which this is just a start.
