"Social Video Editing: Taking Video Storytelling to the Cloud with Creaza.com
From 2005 to 2010, online video grew at the phenomenal rate of 910%, compared to 114% growth for the internet overall, and 0% for television. Today, 60% of all web traffic is online video. It is clear that video is fast becoming a preferred means of expression.

Some enablers of this movement include: the availability of devices that allow video capture such as cameras, tablets, and mobile phones and the proliferation of social networks and video-sharing sites.What hasn’t been effectively conquered is the ability for people to shape their stories via easy-to-use and cost effective editing tools.
