A further indication of the shift to online video content distribution comes today as San Francisco's Slide has announced multiple partnership deals with the heavy hitters in the television and media industry that will allow video content to be available on the popular social networking site Facebook.
Financial details of the deals were not available, but some of the companies on board so far are: CBS, E! Entertainment Channel, Warner Bros, News Corps, as well as the jointly-owned NBC and Universal's Hulu video content site.
Slide also announced that it has advertising revenue sharing plans in place to launch the new services on FunSpace and plans to roll out new programs next year.
Slide, founded by PayPal creator Max Levchin in 2005, already provides the most popular third-party apps for both MySpace and Facebook. With over 20 million monthly users, the media-sharing programs most frequented ports-of-call are Slide show, Top Friends and FunWall.
