JOOST Invitation
Brent Roos is offering an invite to Joost for anyone that plays along with his game. Basically he would people to write a short essay of why they think they should receive an invitation. Based on the comments of his site, everyone who visits his site is either illiterate or doesn't know how to follow instructions. Based on that, this simple paragraph should be enough!
However, I believe in the spirit of sharing and I am excited about trying Joost, so why not explain my reasons. Besides, Brent has a link to a funny YouTube/Google video. I hadn't seen it before and it got me to stay on his site for a while.
For those of you who are not familiar with Joost, it is an IPTV service, a way to get TV over the internet. Currently, the content is lacking (no Heroes, 24, Lost, or SportsCenter), but the technology is promising.
Many of you are familiar with Real Nebraska, our online video recruitment objective. As more and more schools begin to follow our trend, we must come up with new and exciting ways to keep our objective fresh. Enter IPTV. I'm not convinced broadcasting our content through IPTV is the way to go, but I would like to take the opportunity to explore in more detail.
So Brent, if you read this - how about an invite?
