I know we return to this every so often - how to add more functionality to this list... I just had a thought, so I wanted to jot it down here while it was still fresh.
It seems to me that we could benefit from a Facebook-style, Ning-style or Drupal-based site where we could have this same kind of disussion forum, but where we could also upload/link a lot of other content - particularly videos - and connect in other ways. What I want is a bridge between RSS, Twitter, threaded discussions, community hub and information archive. I want a non-corporate community-owned place where I can go, where there are lots of online video people, where I can: a) post links to things of interest (i do that here sometimes) b) Bookmark videos I like (harder to do that here) c) chat in asynchronous twitter style but with preserved threads that allow more than just statement > response > end d) talk about more serious internet video things (i do that here) f) Bookmark whole sites/channels/videoblogs, like a vlogroll, but much larger, and with an aggregated directory of all sites for everyone to browse, in categories. g) Form groups for different types of people/sites/channels/videos/ interests h) post other types of content - photos, etc i) a place for people to come up with & coordinate collaborative projects and challenges like vbweek j) an archive like the videoblogginggroup Wiki for sharing advice & suggestions Oh my god, this sounds like Facebook for online video people. But I HATE Facebook. So how come? I think what I hate most about Facebook is the lack of boundary between people from different parts of your life - work, home, hobbies, etc. I want something like Facebook, but that's a videoblogging ghetto.
