Assignment 8

Joost, YouTube lead new era of online TV

 

            This article that I am writing about is talking about this new website called Joost.  It basically lets you watch TV shows and anything you want from videos of your friends.  The cool feature about this website is the social capabilities it has.  You are able to talk to other people who enjoy the same shows.   You can also form groups between you and your friends to discuss what is going on with your favorite shows. 

            In my opinion this is going to become a huge hit.  This is a brilliant idea, to put TV together with a social site were you could discuss anything you want or something you are confused about.  They compare this site to YouTube, since YouTube is by far the number one video website on the Internet.  I say in a couple of years this site will over take YouTube and become the number one video website.  I also believe that in a few years a ton of people will just start watching TV on their computers instead of on their TV.  That way they can watch TV anywhere in the world on their laptop.  I personally cannot wait till this happens. 

            So in the end, this website is going to take off in the near future.  I am sure you will be hearing something’s about this website.  I love technology and cannot wait till the future since everything is getting better and faster.  I love the idea that I can go online and watch any shows that I miss when I was working or at school.  This is a very creative idea and I am glad that someone finally put this into action.
