Talentville is a new website intended to be a home for emerging writers to cross-pollinate. Like Triggerstreet and Zoetrope, you can review each other's scripts. There's a neat mechanism where each review you write generates you "Talent Dollars" which enable you to "buy" a review of your script.

And there will be lots of goodies as founder Ben Cahan (who helped found Final Draft) adds features.

Right now the site is in Beta, but if you join now you get an immediate upgrade to your citizenship level (see the site) and some free Talent Dollars.

Check it out, and let us know what you think in the comments!

I tried to sign up but it told me I was putting in their CAPTCHA code wrong three times in a row.

I did not.

Guess it's broken.

Paul,

Regarding the CAPTCHA, I suggest trying it again, it should work fine. If for some reason it does not accept the code, do a screen refresh and the site will give you some new characters to enter. Just remember, the site is new and if there is an occasional hiccup, we'll solve that promptly.

I removed some comments that were not about the site, and that made some second-hand assertions about certain people. While in general I don't edit the comments, I don't want this to become a forum for rumors.

I've reviewed a number of screenplays and started a collaborative TV writing project on Talentville so far.

I think Talentville is shaping up as a great site with a lot of potential.
