What's happening, I'm scared :-(

There's a lot of media deposited into my retinas, it's pretty but i feel overloaded to the point that it took me an inordinate amount of time to spot the buttons and even longer to figure out what they are for. There's nothing to entice me into participating.

I'd like to flick through to new things without having to vote, because I'm lazy like that and most people

Could be good if you got some indie record labels and studios on board and fed them people's submissions directly. Like every day, 10 top new liked videos/music goes to labels.

Good point, Tauv. I may disagree about the overloaded part, but think you're right about people not wanting to vote. The thing is Famocracy is not only about entertainment. It's about helping talents be spotted through democratic voting. So, although the voting may seem a little burdensome, it seems essential to what we're trying to do.

About feeding people's submissions to the studios: wonderful idea! I think this would get a lot of users excited, and aware about the fact that they become famous through Famocracy. How would you go about making that deal with big studios?
