Invitation to Joost

I’m a participant of the Joost beta best and have currently one free beta invite that I can freely give away to one of my readers. To make it fair for everyone I have decided to select one of the readers who replies to this thread today. This ensures that everyone has the same chance to win the Joost beta invitation. I will be getting more invites as the Joost beta progresses and will give them away as well. I probably should start to describe the service that Joost offers before I announce how you can win the beta invitation to Joost.

joost logoJoost is one of the few services that sprang up lately that want to offer tv experience over the internet. You download their client and can watch the shows that they offer using a broadband internet connection. The main advantage over television is the fact that it is more interactive with features such as searching, rating shows and chat functionality.

Video Playback is done in full screen which looks ok, it is definitely not hd quality but the quality is enough to enjoy the movie.

joostjoostThe current list of programs and shows is rather small which can surely be attributed to the ongoing beta test which does not require the latest tv shows. You get to see some documentations, sports and game shows which is a good start but can be viewed elsewhere on the internet as well.

I wish everyone best of luck, may the luckiest one win the beta invitation ;)

Update: Well this post has been covered by Technoratis Buzz TV, check it out if you like. Thanks Aaron for the coverage and the reminder by email.

    Hi, I’ve been looking for a Joost invite for about a month now… I’m willing to pay you $10USD (paypal) for it, as long as it’s not expired. (I’ve heard rumors that all invites are expired as of March 23, and won’t be distributed again until the public release)
