Is that sarcasm? I think Justin.tv's guys have made some realy progress as far as online video goes. They're pioneers. I'm sure they have some great stuff planned for mobile!
yeah they have developed pioneering technology but they failed to build a profitable company, which is what matters if you take funding and present yourself a company.
come on, we all know that at the end of the day you have to make money.

#13I'm curious as to why this necessitates a new app. Justin.tv is a pretty strong brand, why not wrap this functionality into the existing app?
Not that I would do it differently, there's dozens of reasons, but it's a blog post I would want to read.

Welcome to the current world of web 2.0. Justin.tv will either figure out how to become profitable or will be bought out by an already profitable company. Probably the latter, but time will tell. Either way their technology is worth millions and that would be a hot sell.
I have a lot of respect for Justin.tv's founders/team. If you're going to be pessimistic, please be pessimistic because of a valid point. HN is a great community and I really enjoy the people who post on here...I want it to stay that way!

#15nice to see people getting over overhyped web2.0 'companies'
Why not just wait and see what its all about before we knock it down? It could be a revolutionary new way of sharing experiences. I for one am optimistic.

#16They should stick to products like this. I'm wondering what will happen to justin.tv after the upcoming UFC court case ? Or will the case go the way of Viacom vs. YouTube ?

New year, new brand.
In all seriousness, I promise we will explain this later.

I said nothing about the founding team, and I hope their next project will work out great, but video streaming bandwagon (which started with justin.tv) is defacto overhyped and underperforming industry. anyways, goodluck.

Do people disagree? You read words by looking at the whole shape, and it has the same shape. I thought that's what it said when I first saw it.

I didn't down vote you but I'd imagine the down voting wasn't for disagreement with you, but rather, because your statement doesn't seem to add much value to the conversation.
