    yawn, hy couldn't someone just do that within del.icio.us? there are hardly any companies coming out recently with any creativity or ingenuity.

    Noah,

    I agree that this is unoriginal in the extreme, but I do think there is room for more verticals in the bookmarking space. Photomarking(?) can't be that far off. In fact, I fully expect Digg to expand to new media types (and they probably will eventually).

    Cool idea, but Veoh and YouTube will add this functionality themselves. Veoh is working on version 2.0, and i believe this is part of it.

    There's a lot of value in specialized communities of human-to-human sharing. Plus, vertical tools to manage notoriously gnarly and uncooperative file types like video are probably out of range for generalist sites like delicious.

    Hi Pete,

    I did a podcast interview with Mary Hodder just the other day where she spoke extensively about Dabble - the thinking behind it and the business model. Interesting stuff - you can listen to it at http://www.podleaders.com/mary-hodder-podcast/

    Tom,

    Yep - I listened to it at the dentist's today. (He was running late so I got to hear the whole thing.) :)

    Great interview - I totally agree with Mary's views on copyright and media. Also interesting to hear that Dabble is a remixing community as well as a video bookmarking site.

    Pete,

    I hope that's not to say you are using my podcasts as a way to put yourself to sleep at the dentist's?

    :-)

    Stumble Upon has been doing this for a while.
