• iPods and RSS

  Video Dog is a very nice concept with a very nice beginning. And now, the RSS ought to carry the vids as enclosures so my aggregator can download them automatically, and the videos ought to come in a format compatible with my 5G iPod (the Video iPod). THAT would be truly splendid...

• iPods/RSS

  Pixeltech,

  Thanks, and yes, we're working on making both of your requests possible, and hopefully very soon.

• Time sink

  Man this is going to be a time-sink on the working day. You've just made the workers of America another 5 minutes less productive. Hope you're proud of yourself.

• this is great

  but it video files don't show up when using Firefox 1.5 on a Mac. May I suggest fixing that? I can see the cute photo of the dog & fawn in Firefox, but not the screenshots. Firefox is taking off as a browser and I would highly suggest that your site be made compatible. Surprizingly this part of your site works with Safari (Mac's browser), but not Firefox.

• Unreadable

  I like the idea of Video Dog a lot, but white print on a black page? Terrible web design; very difficult to read. Why make this one feature so much less user-friendly than the rest of Salon?
