For those following the online beta crowd have surely heard of Joost and its recent $45 million Funding from Sequoia, Index, CBS & Viacom.

Receiving such a huge boost from big corporations makes you start to wonder if they know something that you don’t. Why not give it a spin and see if the Internet TV revolution has begun. I have quite a few Joost beta invites available, leave a comment here and I will email you an invite.

IP TV… Hasn’t that been in the pike for a long time, now? In my humble opinion, the technology is acceptable, the codecs for streaming have gotten more efficient, with acceptable quality… It’s a matter of a good, saleable campaign, and an easy-to-use interface.

I can’t wait to try it.

I think web tv has promise, but a lot to overcome. Why should I watch poor quality tv on my computer when I can watch high quality tv from my expensive HDTV setup? Unless I am at work and then should I be watching TV.

send me a invite pls
