It would have been great to get them to talk about whether the funding for ad content and video content is supportable these days, given the drop off in the markets. They did say they were recruiting. What kind of bright minds do they want?

Hey Doriano,
Where's the editorial content in this so-called blog post? Did you even write any of it or did this advertorial come straight from PermissionTV?

@skeptic Guess your name says it all. No they didn't write it, wiseguy. Sorry you didn't like it.

It's not that I didn't like it, it's that it lacks any editorial credibility possible...not-so-wiseguy.

BTW, I realize you're a good writer and appreciate your work. Just thought this particular piece wasn't up to snuff.

How does the feature set of this offering compare with that of YouTube itself? One concern with such services is that they cannot hope to provide the wide range of capabilities that users deserve and are accustomed to, such as annotations, personal channels, favorites, comments, etc. I think publishers should recognize these features as a top priority, which may or may not be found on any of the so-called "private YouTubes." I don't know if it is possible, but it would almost be better for companies like this to provide a sort of front end for YouTube itself, where all the capabilities can be retained while adding whatever branding or style is needed.

Mike,
You're right. The one thing we've tried to focus on is the needs of the video user and to enable web developers to create any type of video-enabled application they can dream up. Our belief is that video will become an integral part of all online experiences and that video-based applications (not just players) will emerge that go beyond the YouTube-like experience. The platform required to support such video applications needs to handle all aspects of video ingestion, encoding, tagging and delivery while providing rich application development tools, web services and integration capabilities to power the custom user experience.

Video is the future of internet and commerce. Have a look at Treepodia, the most advanced video service for online retailers and travel industry. It will be interesting to see the industry in 3-4 years from now.
