I’ve been playing around with a beta of eGuiders. It’s a site that uses industry insiders and pioneers to find great video making it easy for us to just enjoy great video without having to view millions of rubbish videos to find the gems.
There is no doubt that you can start watching great video content within 5 seconds. I was drawn to Obama’s ad-libbed election night speech (Fired Up? Ready to go!) – I never actually got to see this at the time and it is brilliant. And I then went back to the home page and picked another 3 or 4 videos all of which were great. No dross. I then started to look into the individual eGuiders (the curators of the site) and used them as a way of finding good content. I think the site could do more to suggest/recommend video to me once I have started my session – maybe using my behaviour to start personalising the recommended videos.
But other than that, eGuiders is a simple and effective curated video service that delivers what it says it will. I wish it well.

Thank you so much for your feedback on our site. Glad you are digging it and please subscribe to our biweekly newsletter.
