If you upload videos to Google Video through the web interface (without the upload program), you can view information about them at Google Video Status page. The report shows if a video is live, it lets you edit the properties and resubmit the video for reviewing. For each video, you have the number of page views and downloads in a similar way to the AdSense reports.

The status page is not new, but I know some people that upload videos and then don't know if someone watched them or if they are still live on Google Video.
There's a new way to upload videos to Google Video: using the new Picasa, that has an option you can find at Tools/ Experimental/ Upload to Google Videos. The dialog is similar to the web form, but the progress bar from Picasa is really sweet, as it's always visible.
