The Venice Project = Joost

in Web

The Venice Project has been renamed Joost. This is the video streaming service that the former Skype founders have been working on. I’ve been beta testing it for a few weeks and it works well. A lot better than something like Youtube which has been sluggish lately. The name change was prematurely posted online, but the Joost developers got the new site up and running for beta testers.

Do you have any questions about the program that you would like me to try to answer? Any screenshots you would like?

I also have two invitations that I may give out if you can prove yourself worthy. Tell me why you deserve an invite to this cool new project.

    hi Jason
    Just found your very interesting blog about Joost and yes I am looking for an invite.

    I am am a uk based tv cameraman and as such am very interetsed in the latest developments for providing content via the internet.

    Also have been thinking about how and what content can be made available for everyone without the usual big business platforms ie searchable.

    If there is any way you cn help I would appreciate it.

    Thanks

    In the last 20 years we moved from analog to digital technoly. TV’s went from CRT to LCD. Now we are on the point of switching from a linear push towards an interactive pull system. Internet is a technology which supports this interactive pull model. However when using the “tradional” client server IPTV model, bandwidth will become a problem. P2P technology will solve this. I’m very interested in using the Joost technology and see whether the Joost technology can compete with the current digital TV technology. Yourtube is nice but I want have a quality video stream when watching TV
