I assume you are familiar with videoclimb.com ? So here is my take: There are already many climbing 'community' sites; everything from internationally to locally scoped. These sites feature discussion of all kinds from gear, safety, routes, videos, etc. Thrutched seems to be attempting to capture the niche of climbing videos. But here is my question: How can you talk about the videos w/o entering into discussions of other topics (safety, routes, etc)? I think you immediately enter a situation where, despite choosing a niche, you are judged against all the other larger, more established sites; and come out as lacking. It seems like you need to rapidly build an active, dense seed community if Thrutched is to take-off and endure. But I dont know how you would go about doing that.
