Tiscali, the internet and broadband company has teamed up with Forbidden Technologies to launch Clesh (Clip Load Edit Share), a new online editing tool which enables users to upload digital video and mobile phone clips, and edit and share them with their family and friends across the globe via the internet. Available at launch only at www.tiscali.co.uk, Clesh is a consumer friendly scaled down version of Forbidden's professional FORscene software, used by TV and film post production experts.

Clesh is the first fully interactive consumer web-based editing package and offers an easy and convenient way to edit your baby's first birthday, wedding video, or phone clips and post them on the internet for sharing via a secure log-in.

We are delighted to be the first to offer the package to our users on its launch"
