Code name: Unicorn
Synopsis
Alright, this is gonna be a good one. Codename: Unicorn. 'Unicorn' will be Vimeo's first in-depth stats feature giving you the ability to know anything and everything about your videos. The full feature set is being designed for Vimeo Plus users, but regular users will also benefit from the dashboard page that will provide overall stats. You're gonna be able to do all sorts of neat stuff like compare different videos, monitor your top liked, commented, and viewed videos... even see where your most popular embed referrals are coming from and maybe even some awesome stats visualization features. Get psyched!

The team has knocked out most of the feature set that we plan on incorporating and Jack and Sox have almost finished the designs. Next steps will be to give this mammoth project to Casey so he can build the flash components.

Channels 2.0
Synopsis
Channels 2.0 will be a much more functional and easier way to showcase Videos. We're stripping channels down from its current incarnation to give it a slick new look and we will be providing multiple views that users can choose to display their channel in. With the creation of Groups, Channels 2.0 will become more of an entertainment destination as Groups takes over the roles of community building around certain themes.

Groups
Synopsis
Groups will function as mini communities on Vimeo. You'll be able to create groups, invite users, share videos, and connect with people around the idea of that group. Basically Groups will start where Channels left off: more usability, great new features, and better control over everything.

Iowa, Sean and Jacob are currently working like wild animals to get this done. We've just begun beta testing Vimeo Groups. Things are looking pretty good so far but there are still some work left to be done. It's getting close and we are super excited.

Top Navigation Improvements
Synopsis
With all the new features and improvements to the site, we've been forced to rethink our organization of the Navigation bar on the top of each page. We've begun work to better organize our features and also provide contextual help when you visit any page on Vimeo. We hope these improvements will make it much easier for users to find what they want quickly and efficiently.

Thanks for sharing so much about your process and about upcoming features!
Oh and I can't see the pictures! I dunno what's up, I can probably just switch to a different browser.

I am one that is getting plus even if it had no features, just to pay Vimeo for it awesomeness... so, this unicorn thing is a plus plus hehehe
thinking about it...
I gonna need more love and comments, so I can monitor them :)
Why just limit yourself to UIs for computers? They'll be such a small percentage of the platforms for video in a few years time.
That means Vimeo's stats will be even better. I suppose they'll be community based as well. Stats based on people supporting each other's artistic expression. I think that's what Vimeo is about... right?
As a Vimeo Plus member, I can't wait for the stats !
Does it exist a beta version ? I'll be happy to test it asap.
Thanks for everything, Vimeo is the best.
Thanks,
Bill Barrere
I'd like a way to mark users or private messages as spam - I've had a couple so far, it seems someone has found a way to send automated rubbish to many people, perhaps even create accounts automatically.
