guys?

Some project ideas to once again catalyze action:

I like the quick cell phone vids. Perhaps a platform for people to upload, mix, and match videos on the fly? This could be done using the Youtube API in a flash front end. People could MMS their movies to a public youtube email which our supposed website would then reference for people to mess with.

Or back to the video games idea and finding a way to expand a classic game into the meggamultiplayer cell phone world. An online game of tetris or asteroids could be controlled by hundreds of people at once via sms. I'm not sure if the technology is as readily available as the youtube api but perhaps we could tap a site like Twitter or even simple aim clients to access sms data.

Two ideas. waduya think?

I like the idea of exploring video game nostalgia... especially if you can tap into some user generated content.

We'll do a session on video games as narrative this week.

Mike, Jake?
