Arguments Get Visual As SideTaker.com Adds Video
JACKSONVILLE, Fla/PRNewswire/ -- SideTaker.com, a
destination to settle arguments anonymously using the jury of the
Internet, is adding the ability to post stories in video form. Users
may now use their webcams to tell their side of each story, but will
still have the option to remain anonymous by choosing either audio or
text posting.
"Many have asked for it and while we like to give people options to
add their sides, we needed to give each person involved in the story a
way to still remain anonymous," explains Justin Marinos, founder of
SideTaker.com. "Obviously the users adding video sides will not (remain
anonymous). The second side, or the person fighting with the initiator
of the story, can choose to add their response in either a text, audio,
or video format."
Giving the audience only text-based facts as written by the argument
participants allows them to be unbiased in their advice, comments, and
decisions, which was the primary reason SideTaker.com had not
implemented video in the past. "People are judged on their appearance
first and foremost," Marinos says. "We still hope that though our users
will now get a glimpse of who is actually posting the arguments, they
won't pick a side based on looks or articulation. It's still about the
facts of the arguments."
The tradeoff will be in the response. SideTaker expects its video
sides to get a bigger reception because people would rather watch video
or listen to audio than read text. Each story has an accompanying RSS
feed but video sides will also be syndicated through YouTube, allowing
for a larger audience to weigh in with their advice.
The ability to add video will begin the week of October 11th.
