We're pleased to announce a series of major updates to Plumi, the free
software video sharing content management system. These updates include
major enhancements to site speed and reduced server load, a new design and
features such as tagging and call outs. Plumi enables you to create a
sophisticated video sharing and community site out-of-the-box. In a web
landscape where almost all video sharing sites keep their distribution
platform under lock and key Plumi is one contribution to creating a truly
democratic media.

[image: wsf thumb]<http://blog.plumi.org/wp-content/uploads/2008/01/wsfthumb.png>On
January 26th a series of actions initiated by the World Social
Forum<http://www.wsf2008.net/home>took place around the world. The WSF
used video to document those actions
and employed Plumi to distribute them online.

To date the site has collected around 50 videos from all over the globe. The
videos are compiled on the *wsftv.net site <http://wsftv.net/>*.*

image]<http://blog.plumi.org/wp-content/uploads/2008/01/africa-on-tv.png>A
new African video-based website using Plumi software and other Plone
customisations claims to be "the first Television online for Africa and its
diaspora". The Africa on TV site is still under construction but already
lists many videos hosted externally on YouTube. Content focuses on cultural
material, including video of well-known musicians such as Youssou N'Dour,
Salif Keita and Oumou Sangare.

The Athenaeum Centre for Libraries (Centro di Ateneo per le Biblioteche -
CAB) recently implemented Plumi for their Berlin 5 Conference on Open Access
at Padua University.

The aim of the conference was bring together the various initiatives and key
players within the Open Access movement in order to:

   - have an overview of the developing tools that sustain Open Access in
   scientific data and cultural heritage dissemination
   - develop the effective strategies that can contribute to the
   construction and implementation of this new paradigm of the scholarly
   communication world.

[image: ut]<http://blog.plumi.org/wp-content/uploads/2007/09/uniontube2.jpeg>Japanese
labor organisation LaborNet <http://www.labornetjp.org/> have implemented
Plumi to run UnionTube <http://video.labornetjp.org/>, a video sharing site
focussed on Japanese worker's issues. The site invites union members and
others to contribute their clips to the site. If you have a look you'll see
Plumi adapts pretty well to running in Japanese with the help of Plone's
great language support, though there is still some work to be done. Check
out the site at video.labornetjp. org <http://video.labornetjp.org/>
