Anyone know how I can email a video clip from a digital camera to a friend?

depending on the size, its just like any other attachment, usually there is a size limit imposed by your service provider, so you may have to host it somewhere and then just send the person a link

Where is a good site to host on?

I think Geoff has made galleries for all the DVKK members on the airspeed site, you should be able to upload it there and then send a link

The free account has a 25mb file size limit for video though.
If it's bigger than that, you could use winrar and split the file up into 10mb files or whatever and attach one at a time to emails.
If the file size is too big, it might be better to encode it to a divx/xvid avi file to reduce it.

Another alternative might be http://video.google.com/
The only downside to google video is, everyone can watch it. Read the FAQ to find out more about it.
