Google Docs launches video sharing and playback — from techland.time.com by Samantha Rollins

Google Docs, the convenient tool for reading and writing documents and creating spreadsheets online, announced this week that it’s adding video sharing and playback to its ever-growing list of capabilities.

This means that videos can now be embedded and played in documents themselves. Videos can be up to 1GB in size, and the file types supported include MPEG4, 3GPP and MOV files, WebM files, .avi, MPEGPS, WMV and Adobe .flv files. Videos are uploaded in a simple YouTube-like uploader, and once they’re stored online, they can be viewed with one simple click.
