See, questions like this would go well in a videos section
Personally, I don't compress it per-say.
Record, upload to home computer (read: plug in by USB & capy across), edit, save & upload.
For editing, I use ULead VideoStudio 11 (when in Windows). Awesome software for video editing, and one of the guys at work does still frame animation with it (using a digital camera on tripod).
The saving, generally it's saved as AVI, again, by VideoStudio (since thats where the edit was done). The format you chose denotes certain elements of the recording.
Then when you upload, the site you upload to will
usually "optimise" it for streaming. In other words, they'll compress & translate it to another format, which implies different compression on their format too.
Photobucket for example, uses flv's (Flash Long Video - IIRC).
