Juiceless Joost
Nov 19th, 2007 by yigber
Just tried the Joost Beta 1.0.2
Short reminder: Joost is “a system for for distributing TV shows and other forms of video over the Web using peer-to-peer TV technology, created by Niklas Zennström and Janus Friis (founders of Skype and Kazaa).” Taken from Wikipedia, and see more details on the Joost site.
Looks great and promising but currently the content was not that great. I couldn’t find anything I could bear to watch for more than 2 minutes. While running it consumed about 60% of my CPU.
Joost is worth a spin and worth tracking as it builds.
