I was starting to dread another YouTube copycat – but this looks like it might be halfway decent.

What i could gauge from the site was that the streaming was good but really low quality.
Lay out and design was awful.
Unfortunately the TV shows on it looked totally bgrade at best.
But i hope they prove me wrong because it has potential to have some really cool shows on it. As long as it does not get flooded with psycho’s like most of these sites do!!!!

It is still very early days.

Sounds like Al Gore’s San Francisco-based Current TV (www.current.tv), which has already been around for 2 years in the States.

Wow a whole bunch of low self image girls resorting to near-porn. Nothing new here. VERY SWEET layout/colors/name and tagline though.

WebbAlert.com Update Day 3

Well since Mike isn’t giving his daily update on this service, I figured I’ll give the update….

She still is talking at warp speed along with the exaggerated facial expressions we all love. Amanda Congdon she is not.

Btw, She is not looking nearly as “hot” today without her makeup… a little lipstick and foundation will go a long way. Her hair is also looking a little tired (bad highlight job?).

That’s bulshit man.

Michal check your sources again. The only guy from the founders that is still on the web business is Goldfinger and he is way into Jajah and Dotomi.

AOL bought ICQ. Orly the girl you link to in the end works in AOL. I wonder of you are starting to get the point…

Why do we need another company that does the same old thing? I’m hoping that the developers of ICQ recognize that their new company can’t do the same old thing if they want to succeed. Therefore, the question is: What will they do to make their company stand out?

What’s new here? Is this the Vulcan mind meld of Youtube and Digg?

I am very surprised about this article. For one, is not clear which of the former ICQ founders are involved and that’s the only newsworthy part of this article.

This sounds a lot like Youtube.
What completive strategy will they
use to to compete with GoogleTube and the likes of Joost?

Thanks
