I've been talking to some of the YouTube guys about trying to pool our resources. Basically what I'd like to do is for everyone to collaborate on some type of project that we could all talk about on our respective channels. Maybe that could be all of us making videos about one particular game, or one particular platform, then using the annotation feature to link them all together. My guess is that folks like halfblindgamer, n8great321, etc., would all be interested in expanding their audience. Certain people have gravitated towards one or the other, but my plan is combine them all!
I haven't put a LOT of thought into this yet, but my initial plan is to choose a game that all of us would be familiar with and able to make commentary about. Then we could all release a video around the same time, and then we could link them all with the annotation feature. So, basically a person who went to any ONE of our videos would instantly learn about 5 or 6 other channels of interest. I think that would be a win-win for everyone.
I do *not* want to call this "tag" video or anything of the sort. Instead, I want this to be a big project that is planned, so that we can announce it on our respective programs and get people interested. I'm shooting for Halloween, actually. By that time, hopefully we will have touched base and be able to collaborate on the same game.
