Sharing video?

Hi everyone,
I took a video of my dog and want to send it to my nephews. Each time I try to send the video as an attachment in an email it says failed and file too large. I know I must be missing something easy, but how do you share video captured on your phone when you do not partake in any social networking such as Facebook or twitter. Thanks

I believe if you use the gmail app it shouldn't restrict file sizes. Another option is to sign up for dropbox and share the uploaded link from the app

Thanks. I wonder if box.net would work? I want my wife to be able to save the video to her ion from my phone as well. Thanks

oh yes box.net would work! although the basic free account only allows 25mb MAX upload but I believe they upped the restriction to 50mb since the 50gb promotion...

You could always do a bluetooth transfer if you're close to the other person's phone. I share videos, photos, music, ect. with my wife that way
Thanks for all the suggestions. So far though the only one that would work is the blue tooth transfer but I still couldn't send it to my nephews as the file is 150mb. Still trying to find a work around for this, didn't realize that vox had an upload cap. Kinda pointless to have it then. Thanks

theres always dropbox http://db.tt/PnTUwow :angel:
I use dropbox to save my my video projects (3 gigabytes) when viewing usb/dvd/youtube fails me during video presentations
They don't have upload caps so you can easily upload you video over to your nephew no problem.
Do you have to pay for drop box? Also would the user be able to save the video from the link you send them. Let's say I want to send the video to my nephew and he wants to save it to his phone? Thanks

they offer 2gb for free and you're able to earn more by referrals and uploading pictures from your phone to their cloud.
500mb per referral up to 18gb
?? with picture upload via phone but I earned 3gb with that feature already...
also they give you up to 800mb for the initial setup (validating email, setting up profile).
I've seen ppl that earned up to 30gb+ for free, there was a "hack" where you could have gotten 100gb but dropbox closed the loophole and reset their accounts.
What about the end user being able to save the file. That is the most important feature I want. Thanks

It's probably easier to setup a YouTube channel. I wonder why a 2 minute video is 150mb on this phone, that's huge!

its alot similar to box.net
preferably I like dropbox I find it easier to navigate and their desktop app is more user friendly
with box.net I'll be using it to just store files
heres a link to some pictures I took, this is what the end user would be seeing (your nephew) its pretty simple to download. I did have a few videos but the language may not be your cup of tea and its been long since deleted from the 'cloud' but same concept.
Thanks so you can click on picture and save. That's great

Any good 3rd party YouTube apps out there?

Going from iOS to android is an amazing chsnge. Everything is better. Especially the Google apps. Unfortunately there's one problem with the YouTube app. Where's the deticated subscription only videos tab. Only a channel feed which is just filled with videos my subscriptions liked commented etc. Am I missing something or what but I can't find the subscription only view mode.
Youtube app version: latest 4.0.23
