--- "Hey I wanted to watch the rest of that" Clip Offer -->

Someone from another forum brings up the point that when they watched tBSWM, they were often thinking "Hey I wanted to watch the rest of that!"  Maybe some of you have had the same reaction, so if you can remember the times when this occurred, i'll post the full clip and we'll see how things change when you are aware of the full context.

Also someone (same person actually) said that they don't think the way things are presented in tBSWM is now the video search system would return results.  What interaction system or results changes do you think would make the system work better.  tBSWM system has speed on it's side, the clips are lined up and run constantly until the query runs out of relevant material.  I was remembering the old arcade games which used a video source (Dragon's Lair) where your joystick action told the system where to go next.  My speculation is that what if, the playing video was full screen, but relevant 'to be watched next' material would be lined up on one side and you could chose them based off a still frame and short transcript below : providing clues to what they contain.

Some of the value tBSWM provides is what it removes.  Thinking about the above, remembered that close to 70% of these original sources had one form of the trailer in it.  Who wants to watch the SW Episode 3 trailer 490 times.  Now yes most of us probably did at that time, since it was everywhere, but why ever do that ever again.
