Nimbb’s flexibility as a web based video recorder makes it a welcome addition to the web tools marketplace.

For individual users, Nimbb provides the following:

  • ability to record video directly from their website
  • ability to add/edit the player javascript
  • access streamed video you’ve watched or recorded
  • download files as .FLV
  • send email notifications when users record videos
  • generate video thumbnails
  • access a web based video manager
  • unlimited number of views and recordings

The Nimbb site is slightly imposing at first with stark interface, however once you get going, you’ll find that this is definitely a developer focused product with bags of assistance on how to use the API and web viewer as well as documentation of what’s under the hood.

The site has tons of help available and it’s really easy to get down and dirty with the their service.
