Google Video

By , About.com Guide

Definition: Google Video is a service that allows you to search for, upload, and view videos. Google used to allow video sales through the service, but they ended the practice in 2007 and refunded the purchase price for those who had paid for video downloads.

Google purchased competing video service, YouTube. Google has expressed a desire to expand Google Video to search all available videos on the Web rather than just videos uploaded to Google servers.

Google Video is on the Web at video.google.com.
