I talked about Joost in a previous post. I lamented the fact that I had not been offered a beta invite. Today, apparently, was my day. They expanded their beta test and I received my invite. It’s akin to pay-per-view tv via the Internet, except you don’t have to pay for it. The quality’s better than I expected. The content selection is still limited, but there are a few channels of worthwhile viewing (National Geographic Channel and Comedy Central, IMO). I haven’t delved into too much yet, but you can chat with other viewers while you’re all watching the same show. There are other net-centric features like that built into the software as well. If you’d like an invite, leave a comment. I’m not sure how many I have to give out, so first commented, first served. Once again, reading too quickly has caused me to err. There’s an "Invite a Friend" option within Joost, but there’s also a small line with "Number of Invites to Give: 0." My apologies! But if and when I get invites to send, send them I will.
