We've got some cool stuff/news coming to Video.ca. But first we wanted to update our overall 'look and feel'. As of today, the 'new look' has now been implemented site-wide. So far, the feedback from our community has been very positive. Please feel free to shoot us an email with

We had to do some long overdue scrubbing and cleansing of our server and database over the past weekend and that has spilled over into Monday morning. This has caused uploads to be delayed in getting processed. This afternoon should see all systems return to normal. We are not expecting

"I'm Hawt!!" The pre-Summer heat got to our database server yesterday and as a result he was feeling sluggish and bloated for a few hours. We gave the database server an umbrella and a nice cold Canadian beer, and now all is back to normal again. Thank you for your

We are currently implementing some site/code changes. If you experience a longer delay in getting your videos processed, that's why. Thank you for your patience. Thanks! - The Video.ca Team

A big-time 'thank you' goes out to Video.ca user MacWTL - formally known as the good Tom Leroux. It was Tom's feedback regarding how we were displaying (or not displaying in this case) the comments on videos that led to our recent re-vamp of the positioning, sizing and hilighting of

UPDATE: If you are seeing this blog post instead of the 'upload' form, it just means that your internet service provider has not updated their zone files just yet to reflect our new server location. You may want to try rebooting your computer, as that can often do the trick.

We're movin' on up! To a deluxe server in the sky... We're pretty excited to move into some roomier digs. A bit geekier translation: there is a server migration in progress... Video.ca uploading will resume on Saturday November 10th, 2007. (or later in the day on Friday, November 9th -

We're expecting some intermittent downtime this evening. Between 9:00pm - 2:00am. We won't be down for the entire duration, but access could get spotty. Peace! - The Video.ca Team

Hi folks, I have good news, and some bad news. First the good news. We've outgrown our third server in 9 months! Growth is good, and we're pretty excited to see our Canadian video sharing community continue to gain more users, uploads and video views. The bad news is that

UPDATE: The upgrade is now complete. All systems go. Hi folks, We are currently working on a server upgrade and general wonkiness and the occasional upload delay is to be expected for the next 12 hours. Our new server will be extra spicy and rarin' to go shortly. Thanks for

After more testing, we're now giving a 10% increase in on-site video size a trial run. Effective immediately, all videos are now 10% bigger. If you have any feedback on this, please send us an email: admin [ at ] video.ca Thanks. - The Video.ca Team

Updated Status: Resolved. We're currently working on a backend issue that is effecting uploads as of last night. We expect this to be rectified shortly. But if you have uploaded within the last 18 hours or so, your video may be delayed appearing on our site. Hang in there. Thanks.

Feedback. Lots of it. It turns out our 15% increase in video size did cause some performance hiccups for some users, so until we can implement a better solution we have moved back to our 'original' on-site video size. I suspect we will move again to the enlarged size shortly,
