JavuNetwork also includes true remote hierarchical file management and build facilities. Concurrent with the release, the company has completely redesigned and upgraded its filmmaker community site, VideoFarm.com, and launched a free video editing service for individuals who want to experiment with what digital video content creation on the Web has to offer.

JavuNetwork is a new approach to video creation, editing and management. Rather than requiring the user to buy a high-end desktop, digitizing "Digitizer" redirects here. For the computer device, see Digitizing tablet. For the digitizer in Tablet PC's, see Tablet PC.

This ASP (Application Service Provider) model gives anyone with an ordinary PC or Mac access to the powerful resources of Javu's revolutionary media editing and management applications running on a central farm of high-performance UNIX UNIX

 and NT servers. Because it is Internet-based, JavuNetwork can be used with any browser, whether it is running on a PC, a Mac or even a Unix machine. Unlike proprietary PC or Mac-based solutions, it is compatible with just about every common video, image, text and sound format on the Internet, with the end-product viewable by anyone with access to the Web.

JavuNetwork is presently available for use by subscribers at http://www.VideoFarm.com and for license by telcos, ISPs, Internet Content Providers See content provider. , portals and other parties who wish to offer comprehensive multimedia services on their sites directly from Javu Technologies.

Now, with the release of JavuNetwork 2.5, users have the ability to build videos offline. While JavuNetwork runs on powerful servers that are faster than any desktop editing station, once all the editing decisions have been made, building a large high resolution file can take time. Now filmmakers can use their computer for other tasks (or work on different JavuNetwork projects), while their video is being created by JavuNetwork on Javu's servers, a freedom that is unavailable with a local system. JavuNetwork 2.5 also integrates advanced file management capabilities to help filmmakers work on a number of files and manage their projects more easily.

In addition to the new version of JavuNetwork, Javu has completely redesigned VideoFarm.com and added several features for amateur and "serious" filmmakers. Amateurs can now get their first taste of video editing for free through JavuNetplay, a wizard-driven creation and editing environment designed for small applications such as video greetings cards, online resumes or sharing of home videos. They can also reference FlickTips, a beginner's guide to filmmaking film·mak·ing

 on the web, through a partnership with Flicktips.com. An example video created using JavuNetplay can be seen at www.VideoFarm.com/example.
