Adobe adds video hosting to Photoshop.com

Adobe Flash may be the dominant platform for hosting streaming video on web sites including YouTube, Hulu, Vimeo, and DailyMotion, but Adobe's fairly late to the game when it comes to launching it's own video hosting and sharing service. Yesterday Adobe started to play catchup by adding the ability to upload videos to Photoshop.com, the company's web-based image editing and sharing service.

Adobe isn't the first company to add video to a site that was primarily designed for images. But while Flickr limits videos to 90 seconds, Adobe is allowing users to upload videos up to 200MB through a web browser, or up to 2GB through an Adobe AIR uploader. Users can upload files in "most major file formats" and you can view them from Photoshop.com or share them with other users.

Photoshop.com users will get 2GB of free video storage.

Adobe has also rolled out the ability to create Group Albums that let you collaborate on photo albums with other users.
