If you happen to have any videos stored at Google's Google Video service, better head over and grab them. Google this weekend sent a notice to users that it's shutting down the hosting service, which had stopped taking uploads a couple of years ago.

Google is asking that folks migrate their material to YouTube, its popular video site. The move is not surprising, given YouTube's place in the market.

Wikipedia notes that the service began in 2005, the year before Google bought YouTube. Google said it would instead focus its efforts on video search technologies.
