I really like this move UStream is an interesting, if not particularly successful company.

[...] tied to Twitter (TwtQpon, Dell, Tweba)? Why wouldn’t Twitter co-founder Jack Dorsey joining Ustream.tv as an advisor constitute as tech news? And ask yourself: if all the talk about Twitter’s business model is [...]

@Cjay

Aren’t you that long haired loser who still lives with his parents that used to be on Ustream?

[...] have never thought breaking the news of Twitter co-founder and ex-CEO Jack Dorsey joining Ustream’s board of advisors would have that much of an effect on the micro-sharing service. As of 11:19 AM CET, Twitter is down [...]

I feel sorry for Jack Dorsey, but he like everyone will learn a lesson. It’s about the user generated content, and if a company can not pay its users for content then its just another bandwidth provider. Ustream as of yet has not paid anyone to jump like a monkey. Ustream is not making money. Ustream = a one way street to fail. Ustream has lost its vision because it wants to control your entertainment choices. It should have stayed out of peoples ideas and remained transparrent. But you know how people are, and then the bubble bursts. If I was Jack Dorsey I would run away from ustream as fast as I could.

this should help the company out a lot.. as quickly as twitter blew up, maybe they can add some innovation.

Apparently you’re not aware of the fact that the expression, “down for the count” means permanently.

it’s like an exclusive club. In some ways makes me sick because I want in, in other ways, I can understand it. Must be nice….

Anyhow, Twitter rocks – Everyone knows that. Didn’t they win a Crunchy?

tone of jealously…be happy, this is great news! I hope for partnership of these 2 companies because I see so many people using Ustream and Twitter together. So exciting for me and I kinda saw this was coming!

with good connections and enough VC money, anybody can be an advisor… my brother helped with the Obama campaign in Washington, and now he is an “advisor” at the State Department. He speaks Spanish, so he travels to South America on “good-will” missions… [of course, he has no clue!!!]

Well, it seems to be some kind of tradition, you know… Carly Fiorina was driving Hewlett-Packard into the ground before she was kicked out [with a truckload of money] then she was on the board at Steve Case’s failed “Revolutionhealth.com.”
Also, she was an adviser for the McCain campaign…
Lately, she shows up in Washington’s Sunday mornings political shows… Someone called her on TC “the kiss of death”

Silicon Valley is amazing. I’m in LA so a bit of an outsider, but it seems if a company is hot or doing well then everyone jumps on. Man, wish I could be an advisor :p

ok, let’s see. Jack failed as CEO of Twitter so, let’s put him on an advisory board so he can help another CEO — fail?

Perhaps this is your fault Techcrunch? Or perhaps, it is inevitable. In the UK the media coverage for Twitter has been huge recently, and Twitter is definitely tipping, I can feel that *offline*.
