Another idea for live feed
 

Okay...I know there's a lot of these threads but I've just seen someone's post on DS that gave me a little idea for something similar.

Because C5 are so seemingly obsessed with their 'social media', why couldn't they have an online live feed on the website, with an optional chat box type thing around it? That way, people would be engaging in discussion whilst watching the feed, thus making it more interactive and surely more appealing to their target audience? Of course you could have a multi-camera selection (wouldn't we all love that) but even a single feed on its own with an optional chat box to get people talking would be good enough.

They could promote it all over Facebook, Twitter etc. It sounds much more of an appealing, interactive idea than just a plain online live feed.

And obviously they could still charge a subscription fee if they wanted. What's to lose?

UPDATE: Mock-up of what it could look like (but obviously done better)

Love this idea. They really should listen to the fans more.

Another reason why they should listen to us.

I thought about an idea like this as well. It could be so brilliant to just have something like that and would make the show way more exciting and interactive, having an online feed people could join in with by discussing it in a live chat box. I just don't understand why they wouldn't at least try something like this.

The site feels like it's screaming out for an interactive page like that as well.

Isn't that just what nearly every other country does already?

If it is then all the more reason for it to happen here. Chop chop Channel 5.

Not only that...but they could also incorporate it into their Facebook page. I'm sure you could hold that type of thing on there now, even better surely?

Yeah exactly. And I think it's the type of thing a lot of people like nowadays, especially their target audience. The BBC run things similar and they're always popular, and then of course Ustream which seems popular as well at the minute.

awww ive just rember'd the time when virgin media gave all there internet subscribers it for free.

There'd probably be like too many arguments and harldy any discussion :laugh:

Seriously, it'd be clogged with:

'alex 2 win. so funnyy lul luvher!'
'Why is this show still on?'
'OMG. Bird noises again? gtf.'
'me n my mum luv jay haha'
'luvin big bruv dis summerr woo'
'when is celeb on?'
'Click here for free strip poker!'
'dis keeps freezing?!!''

:joker:

There's so many opportunities but it's not a financial decision..

They talk about social media but don't go through with it. Good idea, OP.

Love this idea, I wish channel 5/Big Brother would listen to there fans for a change.:devil:
