If you’re into being a video explorer and finding the absolute diamond in the rough I Imagine you’ll always want to go solo and never really be happy with any aggregator. A recommendation service works for me though. I like the weshow video awards idea. The Daily Tube appeals to me for its lack of clutter and the email option.

On days when I’m jammed up and have only 10 or 15 minutes to spare, it’s perfect. On days when I have more time it’s a good place to start.

Two more worth checking out are AuditorumA and withabrain.com.

All of these are better than WeShow or YouTube at filtering content.

WeShow, on the other hand looks…. a little too dense, without necessarily feeling content rich. A colourful-but-uninviting wall of categorized thumbnails, and a lot of navigation.

I can see the appeal of well-curated content (not just some top ten list of “what’s big on MetaBreakTube) but we’re not yet at a place where anyone’s destination site beats out the places I already find stuff for myself.

Of course, if WeShow front-page some of my content, I totally take that back….

There is a serious problem if they need 75 people and $5 million to operate a site like this. It’s a nice site, but if VCs are throwing around this kind of money, it really is 1999 all over again.

Anyone can aggregate editorially-selected video using open-source content management systems.
