There's also a deluge of spam on open systems. Actions to hold it
back are worthy.
Spam, Dupes, Tests, and non-vlog video content are some of the reasons why I have chosen not to pull in all the 'feeds' that exist out there onto my site at vlogdir.com. Someone needs to take a few minutes of their time to add a videoblog entry to vlogdir. This person, so far 99.9% of the time, is typcially the vlog/channel author. They are interested to share and expose their content.
My letting VLOGDIR be a user-driven and thus commuity-driven directory, it acts as a very passive filter. I dont have to worry about removing crap... once or twice I had to remove a commercial entry that was not a vlog, just some infomercial... but I deal with it as they come in.
If I took in all the feeds from all the different sites out there, i'd have a headache that i dont need.... and more noise in the directory for the audience. Though vlogdir is an open system, at this point i see a benefit to not sucking in a spitting out every single rs feed that may exist across a group of video hosting sites. Less is More and all that. I'm not saying it is right or wrong, just is what it is right now based on my opinion.... and specifically related to the core directory. I could in an hour or so build a new page that takes in all the newest video posted and generate and aggreagate an RSS feed for it. I might do that actually. But that would be just a vlogospheric feed and not the actual directory. So, their are ways to make availabel the actual video content that is being spewed out from all over... without potentially corrupting a directory with the everything and anything system.
I have not had any porn vlogs added to vlogdir but if they come, i'll evaluate what to do (go ahead, insert joke here).
