New Section Idea: "People"

So we have movies, TV and DVD etc.. I suggest adding a new section called "People" it’s about Famous People u like, Inspired u.
The section would pull resources from “wikipeda� and others u can post the person photo – Brief, comments, web site links..

I would put Albert Einstein and Egyptian Pharon Ahknaton and David Hockeny the Artist

What do u think?

I understand the idea of it, but I think it detracts from the goal of this site: to catalog/list/review/share our favorite collections of entertainment items. I'm not quite sure how Egyptian Pharoahs can be 'collected' ;

For cataloging and commenting on every person, there is a website that already is doing this, if you want to check it out: nndb.com/

But I think we should stick to entertainment-related people only on this site.

I have actually thought of this idea before, they would not be collected but you could make lists like 'people i've met', 'people i admire', 'people i want to meet' etc.. (this is being done at 43people.com but the site is very basic)

I do want to stick to entertainment for now and perfect these sections but in the future maybe, it's also possible that sites could be launched on different domains.

I am building up core features which could work with a lot of different topics e.g. comments, making lists, user contributed content (text, photos, links)

BTW I made this thread a while ago :

"I'm not quite sure how Egyptian Pharoahs can be 'collected'"

A museum could help set you straight there.

lol @ stewart

i see now. I didnt realize that museum cureators are big users of listal. ;)

Could add a new slant to the site. A museum tab.
