Color coding. (Page 1 of 2)

I agree with Dorkman.

Well, some sort of tagging or description scenario would be nice, so if someone realized "hey, I really like this Eddie guy," or "the ones where they examine the structure and fix the writing are cool," or "every time Dorkman is on an episode, I cry" they could sort through what's there and find new ones they might not have listened to. Problem is making that work in a subtle, unobtrusive way.

This isn't a huge problem now, but will be when the website back-end overhaul completes and I can start linking to individual episodes from places like IMDb. Then when someone who was looking for reviews on The Truman Show finds Down in Front, there's even more of a chance that they'll stick around.

The answer might be suggested commentaries based on internal categorization. When you go to Truman Show, it brings up several others like it. Hm.

Over on Rifftrax, they've started asking those who have made iRiffs to tag them so they can organize what's now a mess sorted by submission date into a mess that can be sorted by genre. At this point I agree DIF probably needs this kind of thing for newcomers downloading from the web site instead of just getting the RSS feed. Tag by riffer, genre... maybe by style of commentary if you really must, but I like the idea of keeping that hidden from us and just using it for recommendations. Maybe also a rotating front page section where each of you takes turns highlighting an episode you really enjoyed (or hated).

Yeah, I think you covered that already.

Hitler!

Shitcock!

What if we changed what is currently the archive to a "browse" page, where you can identify traits you're looking for. Eddie. Dissection. Making-of. Animation. Maybe mix and match.

I think Eddie is perfectly mixed as is.

I am equally honored and terrified that I am my own category.  It's either professorial, or segregation.

People who don't listen to every DIF the minute it comes out (and harangue Teague when he puts it up late), and then fall asleep to that episode every night that until the next one comes out, aren't real fans and don't deserve a god damn fancy schmancy fruity booty wishy washy sashaying french princess power pussy color coding system.
