Default WDB Tube : Cleared for takeoff?



Fellow WDBers,

I will be doing some back end maintenance of the site this coming week as part of an ongoing quality check that I do on a monthly basis with the site. One of the things that I do during this 'quality check' is to evaluate the usefulness and effectiveness of the modifications that I've added in the past.

For every useful feature or modification that I add to the site, the harder our servers have to work and the longer your page loads may become.

These 'quality checks' have resulted in removing some back end and also some front end modifications in the past. Well, one of the features / modifications that I'm evaluating is the WDBTube portion of the site. Since adding the in-post video features and such, I'm not sure that we necessarily need this feature.

So, my question to everyone is...should we keep or remove WDBTube?

Tough call. I like the idea of having our own youtube but with a Disney filter on it that weeds out all the other strange stuff you might encounter on youtube, but is it needed when you've made the youtube links automatically turn into embedded videos which lets us watch the video without having to visit youtube. I'd say it can go away for now, and would be nice if it came back out later elsewhere in another shape or form, with hopefully more cool features added on

Well, since I haven't heard any objections to removing WDBTube since adding the ability to share via the post links, then I think that tomorrow will be the last day for the WDBTube feature on TheWDBoards.com

I think that it served a purpose at one point, but we've moved on. I liked the ability to add different categories and maybe we can revisit it in the future. But, I'm sure that there are newer and more 'hip' options out there anyways
