Vimeo Adds H.264, Getting iPhone Friendlier
Add Vimeo to the list of YouTube, Ustream, and Stickam -- sites and services making H.264 versions of their content available for iPhone and other mobile platforms either via the web or via apps.
We won't beat that drum too loudly right now, but H.264, and the new video tags in standards-based HTML5 are where we truly hope the web is headed. No reason a service that prides itself on quality shouldn't get there first.
It's only staff picks for now, but we hope they keep going and get the whole catalog done. There's nothing we'd like better than to be able to embed Vimeo on this site without readers -- justifiably -- complaining that it's not iPhone compatible.
