New Nat Geo Videos Area Launched and Ready To Rock the Internet
January 18, 2008Greg Chapman - Research
Greetings everyone and happy Friday! As we head in to the holiday weekend, I wanted to let you know that the new National Geographic Channel Videos area has been launched on the site with some new features that blow away our older video area.
First and foremost there are five different channels to choose from and potentially more on the way. The first five channels - Animals & Nature, Exploration & Adventure, History & Events, People & Places, and Science & Technology - are directly linked with clips that you would see from some of your favorite shows. The final channel, Nat Geo Wild, is where you'll find clips not only from Nat Geo's natural history films, but also clips from the Wildlife Conservation Society (WCS).
Right now hundreds of videos are loaded and ready to be viewed, with more being added every week. What's different with these videos are the capabilities that allow you to seamlessly share with your friends, embed videos wherever you want, and the ability to play the clips fullscreen .
What else is left? Well that is for you to decide. Nat Geo Channel's Digital Group wants to hear what else you would want to see here and what other type of content you are dying to have at your fingertips. Just post a comment here and it will be passed along to them.
Here's the embedded video player look:

I like Brady Barr and all his adventures and antics. Haunt of the Hippo with the fake hippo lacks total imagination, however, since Jacques Cousteau and his crew aboard Calypso did exactly that to get close to and film the hippos during the Nile expedition in the early 70s. As a matter of fact, the hippo molds of the two programs look identical. Did Brady find the old Cousteau mock-up and reuse it? It seems wrong and a step down in programming especially for Nat Geo to copy and not give full credit to such a pioneer.
