Suggestion for increasing traffic to the new video queue
Sorry, too lazy to read through the entire forum, but I often wonder how many people look at the new video queue, in order to facilitate new content being submitted to the front page.
I think but a fraction of visitors actually view that section, and unless it's been discussed already, I might suggest that the colored block be placed above the 'Top 15 Fastest Rising Videos'...

pho3n1xnevermind, i just went back to the front page, and it's displayed that way... not sure what was going on there.... but anyhow, the point still stands that i don't think enough people are looking at the new vid queue.

You know though pho3n1x, it's not a bad idea to have it at the very tippy top, on top of the little information box. We might see if we can make it do that, see if makes a difference.
dotdudeHow about additional links to the queue besides the ones that already exist. Make them impossible to escape no matter where users are on the site.
How about placing a box under the “Top 15 Fastest-Rising-New Videos” box for “newest to the queue” or “fastest rising in the queue” or maybe “a random five names of videos in the queue” – something to excite people to look there.
Right now most messages are begging for sifting to take place. Maybe teasers will help generate more traffic.
dotdudeMy uncle used to have a bumper sticker on his Suburban, “Have you hugged your kid today?”
So perhaps VideoSift could adapt its own phrase “Have you sifted today?”
