I just wanted to take a moment and tell you about the newest site we’ve created: Fun Family Videos. The goal of the site is to present the best viral online videos (YouTube, Google Video, etc.) while filtering out the garbage.
From a blogging perspective, this site is interesting because it is built on WordPress in order to take advantage of the flexibility of blog software. For instance, each video is a post, which makes it easy to add new videos (and easy to keep the site fresh and current) and also allows people to subscribe via email or RSS and leave comments. The blog software also makes it easy to have multiple “community editors,” a feature that is central to how the site will make money.
As you see, there’s no reason a “normal site” can’t take advantage of the goodness of blogs to do new and different things. What other sites come to mind that are doing this?
