I’m noticing that more merchants are talking about video for affiliates, but they’re not necessarily making affiliate video.

For instance, Buy.com has a new widget that’s powered by Toldya, and affiliate can create an account at Toldya and attach any video from YouTube to the widget.

They are also supposed to be adding some buy.tv videos to the creative, but in the meantime I’d like to offer up some creative.

New videos for products and services are being added each week to WeViews.tv, an affiliate video project from Missy Ward and myself, and we’d like to make those videos available to affiliates.

Feel free to grab the code for WeViews.tv videos from any of the platforms where we post them: blip.tv, Brightcove, Dailymotion, Magnify.net, Metacafe, MySpaceTV, Qoof, Revver, Yahoo! Video, and YouTube.

Please note that permission to use these videos is contingent on using the videos as is - you cannot edit them in any way.

As far as a merchant that is doing something fun and timely with video, have a look at the video from Annie’s Costumes for the Top Ten Halloween Costumes for 2007.
