Improve video sharing and discovery.

I wondered how long it would be until I got a comment on the lack of narration. This was my first video screen record ever, I downloaded trial Camtasia and made this on a whim after watching Drew's DropBox demo, sad to say I actually did the narration but I had the sound options off for my mic. I watched the Sqwiggle video and it is not just more polished than mine, but on another level professionally. I will consider remaking a demo to show more features (logging in, uploading video, ect...), and in your words be more fleshed out.
- ceeK 14y agoSounds cool, I do think the route you're going down could lead to a novel service. I can imagine searching for mountain biking (a hobby of mine) videos and being able to filter them down by zooming on specific trail areas, i.e. the alps, forest near my town etc. I definitely think it could add a new dimension to the current discovery channel of searching through pages and pages of irrelevent videos. I definitely think it would benefit you a lot. Coming from experience with a video of mine[1] a simple demo video doesn't seem to excite people very much. I went down the route of "I'll spend as little time as possible on the video so I can continue with the development", but really, marketing tools like this can't be ignored. In your case especially you have a classic chicken and egg problem and will need to encourage users to post videos. Hope I've helped a bit.
