What it is: Vimeo is the artsy cousin of YouTube. Home to many creative-types, Vimeo users usually aim for high-quality content over fails or cat clips.
Features: It comes with the standard suite, plus the ability to create and share videos to groups or channels. There’s also a video school to help you make better videos. A pro account will let you bump up your weekly upload capacity from 500 MB to 5 GB with unlimited HD uploads.
Why Vimeo?: It’s a solid platform if you feel more serious about video as creative outlet or are just looking for a more constructive community (i.e. less trolls, more feedback).

This giant 8-foot-tall Lego man mysteriously washed up on the beach in Siesta Key Village, Fla., yesterday, and apparently he wants to learn the ways of “our world.”
On the chest of the larger-than-life toy are the enigmatic words: “No real than you are.” According to his Dutch website, the Lego man is named “Ego Leonard,” he is from the “virtual world” and is “curious about your way of life.”
Similar Lego men also washed up on the shores of Holland in 2007 and England in 2008.
