I’d say Vblogging and Faith! Not necessarily in that order. ;-)

I like the Nerdlab idea. Less so the On Faith idea, but it won’t make me unsubscribe.

I’d love to see some screencasts, especially on Javascript. Nerdlab is something I would really want. As long as the content has high quality!

Looking forward to this!

Nice.

Video Blogging – eh, it’s kind of annoying in most cases; maybe more interesting for family and friends to view; could work if it’s really different and/or really good–not even sure what that would be.

Screencasts – sure. these are often good and instructive.

The Nerdlab – very much. more stuff like the foliage slider: different, clever, snazzy, etc.

By Suggestion – sure sure.

By Dare – careful with that.

On Faith – i like to see this. especially if it’s a part of other topics–adds some depth.

Very nice site. Good question.

Nerdlab sounds good. I enjoy screencasts, too. The others I could live without…but hey, it’s your space!

A screencast on Fireworks CS4 would be great as I have been using Photoshop instead since the first CS came out due to better font rendering etc.

As Abobe is now in control of the Macromedia products it seems like a more viable solution to the whole design/css workflow.

I might go through each category and give my thoughts:

* Video Blogging – I’m not too into video blogging, generally the sound & video quality isn’t great, besides, I tend to only like videos if they’re tutorials.

* Screencasts – Sounds cool I guess, not exactly sure what entails but I’m sure it’d be cool.

* The Nerdlab – Wunderbar! <3 the Nerdlab (more below).

* By Suggestion – Also another great idea, anything web dev geekyness makes me happy :)

* By Dare – Okay, I dare you to eat lots of chilli and garlic in a very short amount of time. I tried the garlic one…. let’s just say it was a REALLY bad idea.

* By Faith – I’m not one for religion and that’s all I’ll say.

Personally I think the coolest ideas would be “The Nerdlab” and “By Suggestion”. I’d love to see more code snippets, jQuery especially – who doesn’t like jQuery?! I think you and Collin from command-tab teaming up together to write funky scripts sounds great! Can’t wait to see what you guys concoct.

An entry running through “foliage-o-meter” and the zoombox plugin, I think, would be great to see. Sure, we can all put it in our sites, but I know from personal experience, I can’t exactly sit down and explain to myself what it all does. Yes, I know the end result is something awesome, but the in-between, I for one, struggle with it.

Okay, this is turning out like a blog post, not a comment! Hope you find my wall of text useful.
