剛剛從國外的John Battelle’s SearchBlog看來的消息

I’ve confirmed that Monday Google will launch an in-browser video playback feature based on the open source VLC media player. This is the logical next step for Google’s video search and upload function, which began taking uploads from anyone who cared to submit back in April.

Google整合免費的VLC media Player，準備進軍網路視訊和video search的市場
此舉相信會對一些網路視訊內容提供者帶來不小的衝擊
另外，對於那些無力支付hosting與流量的小企業，會是一個對外發佈訊息的好方法
這對微軟的Media Player也會造成不小的影響
相信對video streaming主機業者也會造成相當程度的影響

有興趣的朋友可以去嚐個鮮
