Wowzers...

Monkey is cute and all, but he's no Owen. Owen's multi-functional! He's cute as a toy, but he doubles as a comfy pillow!

Miles, now that there is a lull in the "battle of the comments page" its perhaps time to reflect and look to the future.

I think it would be smart to take advantage of current technology to channel comments into something new and exciting.......a so called "social networking" dimension to the LG universe.

Here is one view of the LG universe:

1. the video story itself
2. the forum discussion
3. the LGpedia
4. the comments community (social networking?)

You stated in a note to Lizard that it was your thought that eventually comments could run using the same "engine" as the forum. Current comments run on Word Press and I am not sure what engine forum uses. Your thought was that the comments could still be made on the home page but then they would be automatically archived in the forum format. At least that how I interpret your note.

As you mentioned a short term fix is to simply move the bulk of the comments to an Work Press archive page. I think that would keep everyone happy for now. However it also leaves them with different registration for comments and forums sections of the site. Personally I dont have a problem with that.......but I know you would like to see a single sign in and thats the driving force behind the integration with the forum engine.

However I think there may be a better way to take comments. Its basically become a "social networking site" in that its a very social place. Its not chat but its not a forum either. Its more like time delayed group instant messaging if that makes any sense. Well, one concept would be to develop the profiles pages into pages that take inspiration from MySpace. In other words allow people a high degree of personalization over their profile page and build messaging into their profile page. I am just throwing this out there. I am not sure how it would integrate with comments but my gut is that this kinda social networking direction would work far better with the comments community than the more rigid forum direction.

Perhaps we can generate some excitement for taking the comments community in a new direction using things like AJAX to make user profiles pages easy to design. Lets take LG15 into the future.

I like the idea of an LG15 convention, as well. Can I book my booth space now? A huge banner over it with the words "See Apo, the oldest living LG15 fan, and other oddities!
