Name:Hi5
Product URL:http://www.hi5.com/
Description:Hi5 combines top features found on MySpace, like video and music, with top features on Facebook, like school and group networks. Users can upload videos to Hi5, search for videos, or just browse by channel, category and popularity.

Like MySpace Music, Hi5 allows you to register your band and start sharing your music with the world. Bands can only have one song in their streaming playlist at a time, unlike MySpace, which lets bands have up to four streaming songs. Hi5 has a great feature that lets users add any streaming song from a band’s page to their own Hi5 playlist.

Hi5 lets you find and claim your school or college just like Facebook. This helps in finding and adding friends to your network. You can also find friends by providing Hi5 with your email address so they can look up your email contacts.
