In the past week, we've released some cool new features in Google Video for education in Google Apps, including captioning of audio tracks, and ability to upload videos up to 1GB in size for users with Google Gears-enabled browsers. We mentioned that both of these features may be useful for schools, and now we'd like to make them easier to try.
As of March 31st, we will be offering 10GB of Google Video free to every Google Education Edition domain. This will give each school the ability to stream up to 30 hours of content of anything they want - be it 30 hours of Physics 101 lectures, 30 hours of little league soccer practices or 30 hours of commencement keynotes – or a mix of those.
When we originally added Google Video to the Apps suite, we offered it for free for a trial period, but promised a change in our policy this March (right now). And here's that promised change. Now you can store 10GB of video and trade out old video for new, knowing that your current 30 hours is always available on our servers.
So start your video cameras and capture your professors (or your students) in the act; we'll provide the storage; the popcorn's up to you.
