The TV Is Dead. Long Live the TV

Jean

Wired has an article that provides a good summary of television’s transition into the digital world.

“Traditional TV won’t be here in seven to 10 years,” says Kim Moses, co-producer of CBS’ popular Ghost Whisperer, who has just launched a short-form version of her own show online. “It’s changing so fast that I don’t know if it’s even going to be that long.”

One thing the article doesn’t mention is Joost, a “new way of watching TV on the internet” brought to you by the creators of Kazaa and Skype. In a very hyphenated nutshell, Joost uses peer-to-peer streaming technology to deliver interactive, on-demand, high-quality and full-picture video.

Not surprisingly, reviews of Joost have been popping up everywhere.
