kyte.tv… what else?
Monday, April 23rd, 2007No less then four major blogs are covering Kyte.tv this morning. I wouldn’t be surprised if there were 1000 or more articles you will find on kyte.tv by 9 or 10 am this morning. Let’s simplify it.
Slightly similar to Splashcast, Kyte enables you to display photos, videos, music, and even polls created directly in your show.
The service is extremely flexible in its approach to getting content into and out of the service. Users can access their account and add content from their (java enabled) mobile phone, the browser or via email. Viewers can interact with content on the Kyte website, their phone and other websites where users embed content via a widget player.
You can host your photos, slide-shows, videos all in one place — the Kyte channel — and lets you post the channel player anywhere you want.
Webware pretty much wraps it up with
is a new service that lets people create their own TV channel. It’s a bit of a mashup between a live blogging tool, a social network, and some of the live internet TV channels we’ve been seeing lately
and further adds
instead of strapping a camera to your head, you can use a cell phone.
The mobile client is a small Java application for several Nokia and Sony Ericsson phones that allows Kyte.tv users to upload photos and chat with others in a Kyte.tv channel. The mobile live blogging component is called ‘Lifecasting’ which lets users upload pictures from their camera phone in real time.
Technically Speaking, another company that is receiving a lot of hype. Nice PR machine in action. The only advantage I can see so far is the whole mobile idea. If you can afford a Nokia N95, or similar device, that would be one way to have your videos transferred instantly online. Other then that, I think SplashCast has pretty much nailed this end of the market. The market is big enough for a few players. We shall see in a few months which ones are still standing.
