CybernetNews have just written a great post on how Joost mistakenly leaked details of 61 publishers it wanted to signup for its Online Video service. The details came to light when Joost converted a powerpoint presentation to PDF, which accidentally revealed information hidden in the slides.
There are some impressive names in the list of Joost content targets. If only a few of these emerge, then Joost is going to be lightyears ahead of any online video service:
There are some serious big hitters in the list like Warner Bros, Universal Music, Sony, ITV and EMI. Even if Joost are only successful in signing a third of these deals, it’s still going to have a very compelling service.
I’ve stopped my Joost invite exchange as I couldn’t keep up and despite sending over 300 invites only a handful of people bothered to say thanks and shared their invites. However, if you are still looking for an invite then Tony has restarted the process.
