Resolved. It was a short lived problem due to changes that YouTube made.

Cool, I didn't know that Flickr supported video embedding. I'll put it in the list.

This is an example of a page of images that is barely considered as discrete content:

Peeps nearly indestructible!
http://www.milkandcookies.com/link/14...

This is not:
http://www.lolcats.com/

Both are about one thing (peeps or lolcats), but one is about a few experiments and the other is an ongoing projects that keeps changing due to new content being added.

If you are submitting and in doubt, submit it. If you are moderating and in doubt you have the option to skip it. Either way feel free to shoot me, or one of the other mods, a personal message.

Alot of what we do here is from the gut, which is hard to quantify. ;)

Jaxon Brooks replied on May 09, 2009 22:22 to the question "Confused on "Content Site" Defintion" in MilkandCookies Network:

One of the core ideas behind MilkandCookies is to feature content that can be voted on and shared. There is something inherently abstract about the work content, I know, so I will attempt to define it better.

First off, content doesn't change. It's source (YouTube, DailyMotion, etc) may change. It's filetype (MP4, Flash, etc) may change. It's quality may change (standard definition vs HD). Even it's dimensions.

Secondly, content is usually a single item. This could be a single video, an article or a webpage dedicated to a single simple thing thing (microwaving Peeps or the spray paint art of a street performer in Nebraska).

Finally, the content requires a fixed URL. If the link is someplace.com/today then tomorrow the content will be different on that page.

When each of these is met, then users and view, rate, share and comment on the content and everyone know what is being referred to.

We are not a website rating service, but a content service.

Now, all that being said: do we make mistakes? do some things slip through the cracks? do we make exceptions? yes yes and yes

I hope this clarifies things. Feel free to ask more if it doesn't. ;)

I don't understand the meaning of 'snap' in this context. Are you saying people should see the movie in theaters, or that the movie is to intense to watch on the web? Or am I missing the point completely? Please clarify.
