Joost Invites I guess Joost is pretty much open; I have 998 invites. Drop me a line if you want one, and hurry! The 999th person will be left out in the cold!

What's Joost?

Internet TV. I'll be completely honest- I have it, but I've never gotten around to actually using it for anything other than inviting other people.

Way to sell it...

Kidding. You and 'pode need to come over for another movie night soon. I bought about 10 DVDs on my last Target run. All chick flicks.

Then I looked for something to watch the other day and thought "I have nothing to watch"...

Well they got the worlds strongest man channel, so I'm down, would you please send me one, pinks? divinewino@gmail.com

Thanks.

I initially read 'The Hobby Channel' as 'The Hobo Channel.' I'd like an invite anyway.

I'd take one. Seeing as that's the same business I'm going into, I should probably check out the competition. :) jmhodges@gmail.com Thanks.

Fuck, no hobo channel? Man I'd buy upwards of 50 bucks a week for a hobo channel.

posted by Divine_Wino 03 May | 13:13

The absence of the Hobo Channel is more than made up for by the fun of trying to guess what the hell some of these channels actually show. A selected list:

Atlantic Street
GONG
Lime
Much Does Wakestock
New Atlantis
Saavn
The Trance Channel
Virgin Fest 2006

Surely all Canadian and I am assuming mostly funded by government arts grants and facepainting intensive?

what the hell, drop me an invite too.

agreed about the girls movie night, lolaG. Too much distraction from Legally Blonde -- although I can't quote the majority of that movie, not like Bring it On!

Can I have one?

(Now that I actually know what it IS...)

Thanks!

I was hoping Saavn would be some kind of Web-2.0 evangelical thing, but it appears to be a channel for South Asian music videos.

I'm reluctant to look up any of the others, for fear of disappointment.

Oh, and my email is on its merry way to you now.

If my marriage needed saving, you'd have just saved it, btw. My hubby and I have widely divergent programming tastes.

I'd love a joost invite, if you haven't given away all 998 yet.

posted by SassHat 03 May | 20:09

I'd love one, see what all the hubub is about.

I'd be interested in one too, if you haven't sent them all out yet . . . treepour@gmail.com Thanks!

posted by treepour 03 May | 21:52

OK, all have been sent! If you want one after this point, you'll have to e-mail me.

posted by ThePinkSuperhero 03 May | 22:23

Whee! Thanks, TPS!
