> You're assuming that the lact of a directory is a problem. Here's my view.
First, with video, you need a lot more info to decide where to put your attention than with text, because video demands more attention (you can't just quickly scan it like a text post, for example). So for video, you need more filters, metadata, information that helps you decide what to put your limited attention towards. It's an attention war. Hence, directories can be useful. Second: we as vloggers, for some reason, aren't really linking a lot to each other's videos. I'm not sure why that is. But it does mean that we have less interlinking than textbloggers to help people discover new stuff. Hence, a directory makes sense, again. Third: search for video is an unsolved problem, and will continue to be, especially for our type of long tail video. Hence, .. you get the picture :) Then again I could be wrong also and Google might come out with a great algorythmic way to find videos you want to watch, or we might all start linking like crazy to each others videos and we wouldn't need directories to discover cool stuff.
