With YouTube, MySpace and most other video sharing sites blocked on U.S. Military installations due to security concerns, the Department of Defense has launched TroopTube, a video sharing site created by Delve Networks, the Seattle-based video services company. The company announced this today on its corporate blog.
Troops can send videos to families at home and families can do the same, like these wives of troops who created this greeting.
Here's the story from Associated Press.
In June in Hollywood, I interviewed Alex Castro, CEO of Delve. I've republished the interview below.

Hi,
Video sharing is all the rage since a while now, and it does not seem to end. Everybody wants to share their videos, their passions and the things they like. There are so many sites around to publish videos on the web that it is sometimes hard to make a choice.
Well, now for military-related videos, you will have a new site to publish and watch videos.
I have compiled a growing list of already 900 video sharing sites, video search engines, video download sites, and video publication and statistics online services that you can check at http://www.ilikesharingvideos.com
You can directly access the military niche here: http://www.ilikesharingvideos.com/video-sharing-sites/en/niche/military/sort-by-niche/
This site offers some other interesting features, like a forum about online videos, how to make money with your videos, how to create your own YouTube site, video contests, etc.
So if you are interested in video sharing or online video marketing, give an eye to this site, it worths it.
Cheers
