It is possible to combine filters as well using the checkboxes. Videos are displayed with their name, size, source and several thumbnail screenshots which usually gives a good indication of the video’s contents. Video search results can be sorted in several ways including relevance, popularity, duration or date they have been added.

It is furthermore possible to save a video search and to embed it in a website. Videosurf comes with two Firefox add-ons that make it more comfortable to search for videos. Videos at a Glance will display visual video thumbnails while the Videosurf Search Plugin adds the video search engine to the list of Firefox search engines.

Update: The VideoSurf and Videos at a Glance add-ons for the Firefox browser are no longer available at the official Mozilla Firefox add-on repository. The service itself is still operational and users can visit the homepage of the video searching service to find videos.

It is not clear why the two video search add-ons provided by the service have been removed from the add-on repository. Possible explanations include lack of popularity or the concentration of resources on the video surf website.
