Yes, finding relevant video is the goal but there would be lot of hit and miss in the beginning... I guess having manual quality control over the machine selected videos may add value... will keep that in mind... thanks for the comment!

Hi Guys,

Do you think Idea is worth to pursue?

If Yes, what would be the most useful feature you want from it?

Also would you like to be beta user?

Thanks, Nish

Hi,

Thank you all for trying joday.com and giving us valuable feedback. We have stopped our services to send emails, wall post etc. to all joday members until the next version to fix all open issues and incorporate your suggestions. Please understand, we have started working on fix.

I hope you will understand the limitations of prototype and give us a chance to improve in future.

Thanks, joday team.

our goal was to keep login page simple enough to keep but if its not getting the message out, its definitely not rite... something we will think about.. thanks...

no. once login there is a playlist of videos... over the time playlist becomes smarter based on your like, location, network and other trending signals on internet.... it also learns from user behavior and watch pattern...

you should see a lot more videos.. can you retry...

Currently, we post on wall for #1. when user join, as you can imagine the algorithm would not have much relevant data about user and to get user started it put random but definitely a trending/popular video. #2. when user share a video on joday by clicking share button.

brining relavant content is probably the most difficult problem and its never guaranteed to be accurate... our goal is to fail fast, learn from user behavior to serve more relevant next time...

Hi,

1. One of the reason for using Facebook login was to allow user to decide what information they want to share including permission to share on user wall. 2. having said that, we will try to find a way to make it more explicit. 3. email us if you want to remove your a/c from joday.

thanks,

it does that already... algorithm gets smarted over time... initially its mostly wisdom of crowd and could be a lot hit and miss....

It was initially, "uploaded to youtube"

It was from a youtube statistics at, http://www.youtube.com/yt/press/statistics.html

Yes that image is heavy, I've converted it to png compressed but still not good... I will surely check it out...

what did you think about the site in general and concept?

Re:Review my startup, joday.com on Thursday November 14, 2013 @11:44AM (#6733315)
most likely due to adblock, I will try to reproduce it and fix. thanks for you help,

My reasons for forcing Facebook login is to know more about my user in order to serve the relevant/personalize content. It's a chicken/egg situation... how to get around it?
Re:Review my startup, joday.com on Thursday November 14, 2013 @04:18AM (#6731421)
It's a heavily modified Barnes–Hut for clustering, lot of coding in python... used a lil bit of Levenshtein distance too.. alto is 20% of what I want to achieve but need to know if the concept has audience.
