Thanks for the helpful message, will answer in order:
1. The clips are short because the user who clipped them decided to make them that short. We would love to see your favorite clips (and they can be longer than a few seconds)
2. We are debating putting pauses between the clips, it really depends what kind of video it is. The video title is viewable upon hover - perhaps we should put it at the top of the page?
3. Any designers that you know well?
4. Thanks! we would love to see you make a best of list as well!
Also the clips seemed to short. 3 seconds, 5 seconds, is far too short for a video clip. My mind needs to take at least a couple of seconds to adjust to what I am seeing, and process the context around that. By the time I had just started to feel comfortable with the video, the clip was over and the next clip was starting.
Not sure if there is a solution to this. Perhaps longer pause times between clips, or video title above the videos?
And your web site needs the love of a designer.
But I'll end on a positive, I'd love to see more clips like this - the 10 best X back-to-back-to-back. No clicking, no watching 30 minutes of video to see the good part... Keep going with this!
