What to do over the weekend? I'll try to come up with a really good idea for a tv format. Otherwise I'll have nothing to pitch during format pitching session on Sunday - first one, might just be fun :)Off now, since nothing interesting is going on in the field of interactive and cross media…Read more Bonk OIF!

Joost again…
Just a quick note - hats off to the guys at Joost. Not so much because it would be the best running thing with streaming media over the internet or anything like that (because it's not, even though it IS quite nifty and nice).Nah, hats off because they manage to do it all over again.…Read more Joost again…
Betatesting Joost
Started beta-testing Joost today. First impressions:- a lot like what I would expect from a well founded IPTV venture- slightly dodgy on the picture quality, most probably something that will improve. Still way better than other competitors out there.- EPG needs some working on, suggestions, reviews, ratings etc should help the viewer more- good feel…Read more Betatesting Joost

Not surprisingly, most are from the US, with Time Warner heading the list (a measly 29 billion $ in revenues). Leading the…Read more The biggest, the best, better (?) than the rest
If you’re gonna watch mobile TV – watch it on this
Having familiarized myself with the earlier, pretty bulky and unwieldy, versions of gadgets supporting DVB-H (that's Digital Video Broadcast-Handheld, a standard for mobile broadcasting advocated by the DVB project, Nokia, Siemens etc, and in competition with DMB, the Korean version, MediaFLO etc) this next gadget to be out on the market feels like a trip…Read more If you’re gonna watch mobile TV – watch it on this
