BBM needs a better way to browse channels

The current method of searching for a channel of interest is going to severely limit the audience a channel operator can reach.

BBM Channels needs to incorporate a "bookstore" or "app world" type method for browsing and discovering new channels.

Often I won't even know what I'm looking for. It's browsing through the available resources that leads me to explore them in more detail.

Look at the flipboard app (as buggy and laggy as it is...) it's all about browsing through available magazines and adding the ones you're interest in to your favorites. If I had to locate what I've subscribed to using a simple search field, I wouldn't have found even a quarter of what I did.

Thoughts?

Love the idea. Browsing would allow new or different to be discovered. Lots of work to maintain but good for consumers.

That's exactly what I've said since the first beta release, channels need categories because most of the time I just browse, not looking for anything in particular

channel C000F331C- my Z30 rocks!

Yup...I agree! my channel doesn't reach a large number of people because of the lack of categories
