Feature Updates
Hey sevenloaders- we realize that we haven’t given you an official update about any new features for quite some time. So today, we’d like to give you the chance to find out what’s new on sevenload.
Video Deep-Linking
Our deep-linking function is a really cool way to show your friends exactly where the best part of a video is- without the fuss of waiting for the punchline. To deep-link a video simply enter #t= followed by the exact minute and second that you want to link. For example: #t=9m33s will take you directly to the 9 minute 33rd second mark in the video. This feature also simplifies bookmarking and saving your favorite part of a video so you can watch it again later and/or post it for your friends on facebook and Twitter. Here’s an example link: http://en.sevenload.com/videos/ibZPN8b#t=9m33s
RSS-Feeds
A lot of you have asked if it’s possible to subscribe directly to a show’s RSS-Feed so that you can stay up to date with the newest episodes. Well sevenloaders, your wish is our command! You now have the ability to subscribe to a single show’s feed directly. We’ve even taken this a step further and also added feeds for tracking the activities of a specific channel, subchannel and/or show.
Improved Portal Selection
You’ve probably noticed that sevenload is continously expanding into new countries and creating new portals for them as we go along. This led to our dropdown portal selection menu to become rather longer. So long in fact, that we decided to do something about it. From now on, when you click on the flag representing the country portal you’re currently on a new portal selection window will pop up as an overlay giving you a great overview of all the sevenload portals.
Editing Comments
This is a feature that we’ve re-integrated: the ability to edit a comment after you’ve posted it. This handy feature lets you either adjust your message and/or fix any little typos that might have slipped in.
Cooliris-Integration
If you’ve installed the Cooliris Plugin, you can also use it to browse sevenload videos. Simply activate the plugin while on our homepage and use it to discover photos and videos in a new and exciting way.
Take a Break from the Heat
Summer is in full swing, so we thought it would be a good time to focus on what this season has to offer.
Good food- preferably grilled!
Summer is all about enjoying the good weather outdoors. To get you in the mood for some good old fashioned grilling, we thought we’d show you how to make some fantastic, mouth-watering BBQ ribs.

How to? Howcast!
Sometimes we need to know how to do something a little more complicated like installing a new kitchen sink. Other times, we just want to know how we can protect our lunches from getting stolen by co-workers (if you happen to work at a company where this happens).
