Logitech has released its new QuickCam software (version 11.5) that will make video uploading to YouTube easier.

The new software is available for download at www.logitech.com/downloads and will provide users with a ‘YouTube button’ at the bottom of the Logitech QuickCapture interface.

Logitech’s General Manager and Vice President for the Internet Communications Business Unit, Gina Clark said, “YouTube is recognised around the world as the premier online destination for video sharing, and many people use Logitech webcams to create YouTube content. The new one-touch YouTube button adds value to the latest QuickCam software, and we’re confident that YouTube veterans and novices alike will be delighted.”

When a person is ready to upload a video captured using their Logitech webcam, they simply select the video they want to upload and click the YouTube button. A second screen appears for providing information about the video clip, including the title, a brief description, video category and search tags. Once the clip information is entered, the user just clicks the Upload Video button and will be uploaded to their YouTube page. The user will then receive a Web link to the uploaded clip for easy distribution to family and friends.
