Sure, I could write it off as the: omg where is the fucking business model this is such a toy on what is only iteration1! I'm not going to. There are smart people involved and im sure this is a small piece to a bigger puzzle.
Here's what interests me: it makes video online more like tv. ive been reading mark cuban's articles and some others. i want a more tv like experience ie- things start playing instantly as i navigate.
good job guys and keep up the good work.
- jfb 16y agoWe explicitly want to mimic the TV experience; we think that the page 'o videos + ad links is a sub-optimal way to watch user generated content. Think about how much video is uploaded to the Tube every day -- something like 24 hrs per minute -- and think about the discovery problem that presents. TV + discovery is what we're aiming for.
- robryan 16y agoIt's true that discovery can be a problem. It's interesting though to tackle it by trying to emulate TV, the thing that that online video has been trying to move away from as a selling point.
