Internet TV that Actually Works
Internet April 17th, 2007
Joost, as the title implies, is a new way of watching television over the Internet. While there have been attempts to create a viable means to watch television online, most of those attempts could be labeled shoddy at best. I am happy to say that Joost is simply an awesome project, and seems to be humanity’s best hope for a viable online distribution model.

Unfortunately Joost is only available to beta users for the moment, however you may add yourself to the beta waiting list (which actually works). I have a couple invitations left, so feel free to ask. More information can be found on Joost’s Homepage.

What’s Joost?Even in its infancy, Joost features content from major providers like MTV and Comedy Central. Considering it is still in beta, it stands to reason they are ahead of the curve in terms of content. My personal favorite feature is the ‘pause’, which basically allows you to close the program and when you restart it it will resume wherever you last left it.
Joost is a new way of watching TV on the internet. With Joost, you get all the things you love about TV, including a high-quality full-screen picture, hundreds of full-length shows and easy channel-flipping.
