SAN MATEO, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Today, AVOS Systems introduces the MixBit™ mobile app, a fun new way for people to create videos together. The MixBit app combines an intuitive user experience with rich editing tools so anyone can record, edit and publish videos as short as one second or as long as an hour, right from their mobile device. MixBit.com is also the first video site that lets users collaborate with each other and remix content uploaded by the community.
“We started YouTube to democratize video distribution. Now, we are democratizing video creation,” said Chad Hurley, AVOS Co-Founder. “Video is the most interesting and engaging way to share an idea with others. We want to remove barriers to video creation, while encouraging and enabling open collaboration. More than simply capturing brief moments in time, MixBit helps people bring stories to life.”
