YouTube for games: Kongregate launches

Social game-sharing website Kongregate launched their alpha this week. Kongregate is like YouTube for games -- you upload your own Flash games and play others that are there. Ad revenue is will be split with the game uploaders (and, um, you're supposed to be the copyright holder of the game). Reps from the site tell me they're planning on adding Shockwave games to the mix, which I think is a great move because Shockwave still holds the title of best web game tool. I think this has a lot of potential; the kind of "screw the submission process --let everyone upload their stuff and the best will rise to the top" mentality that made Youtube and Digg so popular.

Sign up to Kongregate for free through this link, and I'll gain some Achievement Points for it!
