Filecow is a free video sharing service, but it is nothing like the other big video sharing services. It is minimalism in the extreme. The premise is simple, upload a video of 25MB or less, and it gives you back a link to the video that you can use as you like. Send it in an email or post the link on a web site. That’s all is does, nothing more, and there is a simplistic beauty to it. You can’t watch videos at Filecow, no tagging, no discussion, no discussion, and up to this point no advertising.

Filecow is really just a file hosting service that is a dead simple way to share video.

Filecow is 25th most popular video sharing site on the web according to a quick and dirty analysis (here) that I conducted recently using Alexa web traffic data. Although another recent study placed it at #9.
