I agree that that a facebook style page or a page with pictures (???) would be alright, but considering that the FTC and FLL programs don't even have one central place they can all go for match turnouts, videos, etc. I think we're putting the two other programs on a back burner...ALL the way on the back burner.

Information for such a large number of teams/robots is near impossible to collect and organize. if you have an idea of which select teams to have databased feel free to post it up.
I do not believe the interest level for something like FLL or even most FTC tournaments is that high. The only legitimate type of scouting resource I could see coming online/worth the trouble for would be for teams attending the World Championships. And even that, who would record all the data from their match history?
FLL- pages about this would be, IMHO, useless.
FTC- pages regarding matches of teams attending the World Championships would be the only partially useful thing.
In all honesty, the only section that seems useful because its unavailable at the moment would be a photo archive with unlimited space and easy to upload. Very much like photobucket, an album for each team. Then again, I'm sure The Blue Alliance could do this upon request. It would need to be screened very quickly (unlike CD media) for only TECHNICAL photos. No silly little facebook type pictures. Or just search for tags of a specific team on here....
