What happened?
You might be here as a result of trying to access a video previously hosted by shinywhitebox. Sorry, but the file you're after is no longer hosted by us.
One Click Publishing, the video hosting service from shinywhitebox, has closed. The main reason being that I want shinywhitebox to focus on software development rather than being spread thin across both dev & services.
This change affected the OCP hosting service only
The closure of One Click Publishing doesn't mean shinywhitebox is going away. We'll continue to develop products for Mac. The closure of OCP has no effect on content published to YouTube, Vimeo or Blip.TV.
OCP was fun to write, and a good idea at the time, but I think there are more (and better) video services available now than there were when we originally put OCP into production. Being a small company we need to be careful about what we devote our time to. So I’ve made the (hard) decision to focus on product development rather than service hosting.
I’d like to take the time to thank those of you who provided feedback and positive comments regarding OCP, it meant a lot!
I’m personally sorry to see it go. I think there's a bunch of cool stuff that we could do with it, but from a business perspective SWB needs to focus on its core strength: software development. So, onwards and upwards!
What does this mean for shinywhitebox?
It means:
- We’re still alive :) Hurrah!
- We’re still developing software! Huzzah!
What happened to my videos?
The service itself, and the Amazon S3 backend, were disabled on 1st Dec 2014. We will keep the files around for a few weeks, but shortly after that they will be deleted.
Important
We will delete all video content from our servers shortly after the 1st Dec 2014.
What about my existing YouTube/Vimeo/Blip.TV video?
