Long time readers of my blog can remember my initial infatuation with Joost, but then I just lost interest because I pretty much watched all the programs that interested me within the first few days and got sick on the advertisements and download requirement when moving to different computers. I reviewed Joost and gave away beta invitations a year and a half ago and also blogged about when it became open to everyone in May 2007. Since then however I didn’t have a clue what was going on with Joost other than the occasional email I was sent to inform me of updates to the software or new programming…all of which I ignored.
Well a different kind of email notice came in to day informing me that Joost is now web-based and now requires no download.
I surfed into the site to see it remade with lots of new features mainly social elements, but the site was buggy and pissed me off already because i have to watch an ad almost every time I tried to play a video. Sorry Joost, our separation is close to becoming permanent.
Joost Reboots, But Is It Too Late?

I didn’t even knew this existed.
If I didn’t have satellite with a few hundred channels couple with a DVR and can’t find time to watch everything.
This and all the other Online TV services would’ve been a wonderful alternative.
If I ever get around to building a Media Center PC, or fixing my XBMC. It would be a wonderful addition to all the content which I already have available.
i’ve never heard of this either O_o
