It's simple! Just type in anything you want into our search box. This way you can find relevant videos, channels and even other Selfcasters. What's a channel then?
A channel is a great way of organising videos into a group. And the great thing is other Selfcasters can subscribe to your channel and receive alerts each time the channel changes. For example, say you had a series of video blogs, you could create a channel and as you post each vlog to it, all your subscribers will receive an email telling them your latest instalment is ready to watch. Don't want other Selfcasters to see your channel? Just mark the channel as private when you create it and it's yours, all yours! Muhahaha! Not happy with the order of the videos in your channel? Simply click the edit icon, and you can change the order of the videos by dragging and dropping the clips. Browsing Channels
