To see how it flies, I set up our own channel, iTV21. If you bother to check it, you will find no content in it. Yet. I will have a posting when it goes live. Scout's honor. (I was a Young Pioneer under communism in Hungary.) In the meantime, you can watch an interview with Howard Hartenbaum, a Kyte investor. From communism to unbridled capitalism. Sweet irony!
Okay. Back to business. Kyte was launched last month. Some 3,000 users have since downloaded the player, according to it's CEO, Graf. Their first round funding came from Draper Fisher Jurvetson, Draper Richards, and Skype co-founder Niklas Zennstrom. That's interesting, especially if you consider Zennstrom's involvement with Joost....
So what's in it for you? Besides the by now "standard" features, you have Live Chat in the control panel. I think that's pretty cool. Once you become a member, you can really take advantage of it and talk to other people logged in, or someone from the company who monitors/moderates the unruly masses. (That's me.)
