The Great Lakes IT Report pointed us to Grand Rapids based Spout. According to the web site Spout came about by "Four guys, hanging out in one guy's house, watching films, talking about the films they want to make, getting frustrated with the system that stands in the way of so many great films." Of course as one of the guys is Rick DeVos, they had a bit more resources than your average four hanging around guys. The goal is to create a community where movie fans can gather to find, enjoy and discuss films and the major twist is to leverage Web 2.0 style "tagging" and blogs to create that community. The company expects to generate revenue through DVD sales and is definitely worth a look!
