Hey guys,

the new video format is really working well. I got one request for you. Can you take all the clips you reference and add a custom tag, or put them in a collection, or something? I want to be able to subscribe to "clipiversity" clips, or to browse through them easily without having to come back to this page and click on each link in turn once I've seen the video.

Maybe that feature already exists, but I haven't spotted it yet.

Along those same lines - have you considered adding a little box to the front page -- maybe a horizontal banner across the top -- which could contain announcements and communications from you guys? I feel like new features get pushed out without my noticing because I'm not really sure where to be keeping an eye out for them.

Thanks all - fantastic work as always.

PS guess you'll have to include blip.tv support for video clipping now, huh.

Actually, that reminds me of something else I've been meaning to ask. Are there "public" collections? That would be a little like creating group rooms. Might be handy.

enbar I put Clipversity on my favorites toolbar on my Flock browser. I assume one can do the same with Firefox. Now I have Clipversity within one click.

http://clipiversity.com/

I hope this may be of use to you and others.

Actually, what i meant -- i wasn't very clear -- was I want some way to browse thru the "highlighted" clips from the Clipiversity podcast directly from the Clipmarks interface once I've seen the podcast.

You know what would be cool (and gratifying) is the featured Clips get another kind of star on them suggesting they have been featured.

Thanks enbar! Love the suggestions!! Keep an eye out within the hour for a new episode and an update that should address some of the ideas expressed above.

It looks like arifsali has already found it, but I figured I'd drop in and say thanks for the suggestion! We've created a new clipmarks user called clipiversity and will be adding all the clips that we feature on the show.

Thanks for the great suggestion, hopefully this makes it easy to browse through and subscribe to the clips we highlight!

Ahh! OK. And how did you do the wikiwords?

We snuck the wikiwords in at my request To add a link to a clipper, use { { clippername } } (without those extra spaces). To link any word to a search for that word here on clipmarks, use [ [ word ] ]

Oops, I should also mention that there's a full reference to all the fun stuff you can do with BBCode in comments and clip remarks here
