Who's who in Internet Video – UgcDb launches the User-Generated Content Database San Francisco, May 21 2007 Ever want to know who created the funny video your friends are sharing? Want to know who appears in the video and what else they created? That is the idea behind UgcDb.com. UgcDb provides a centralized repository of profile information for the people behind the scenes of user-generated content – whether it’s videos, photos, podcasts, or blogs. The content is all cross-referenced to make it easier to see who is in what and what else they have done. The profile information comes from user submissions and dedicated content editors who comb the web for interesting background information. The bios are written in a neutral point-of-view, but allow for users’ personal comments and ratings. "With interest in user-generated content so high, users are going to want to know more about the people behind the scenes. Right now, most sites are focused on the content and not the people behind the content," explains Arte Merritt, the founder of UgcDb.com. "The site helps legitimatize the industry – rather than being 'some guy' who uploads videos, now that person is a 'director' or an 'actor',” states Merritt. UgcDb brings together aspiring actors, directors, and content creators to help legitimatize and publicize their contributions and provide a mechanism for others to get started in the user-generated content space. ### If you would like more information about this topic, please call Arte Merritt at 415.640.2133 or email info@ugcdb.com . |
