Brightcove Blog Action

This will be the last post I make on "Jeremy Allaire's Radio", as all of my blogging activity transitions to the Brightcove Blog, launched last week.  Many members of the Brightcove team will posting there.  On that note, I just posted a multimedia entry / commentary on the differences between Telco/IPTV and the Internet of Video.  Give it a view/listen!

Most importantly, if you want to start pickup up the latest you can browse at blog.brightcove.com or pickup the new RSS feed at blog.brightcove.com/blog/index.rdf

Thanks!
Jeremy

Brightcove Launched

As noted on PaidContent, we're launching Brightcove, a company I started last summer and have been stealth until now.  While we're not getting into too much detail about what we're actually doing, we are starting to talk about the themes and ideas behind the company, which one can clearly use to deduce what we might be up to. 

The theme of the "democratization of media" is one that goes all the way back to my origin interests in the Internet, and to some of the important ideas that framed and drove ColdFusion, and Allaire's other software franchises.  We're onto the next phase of experiences on the Internet, and the much richer and expressive medium of video.

XBox 360 - A new media distribution platform

While there was a little buzz last week about the emerging next-generation XBox, to be called XBox 360, much of it focused on the industrial design and basic facts like wireless controllers and that there will be an edition with a hard-drive and one without, etc.

What was not talked about broadly was the much more important details on how the XBox is going to help transform digital media distribution on the Internet.  While many have lauded the mini-mac as a potential consumer-friendly, possibly living-room friendly device that could also help distribute media, the XBox 360 is smack aimed at this and will rock the consumer world with it's features, functions and price.

Some things to keep in mind...

Kudos for Onfolio 2.0 Feed Reader

Congrats to the Onfolio team who have just released their public beta of Onfolio 2.0.  I have been using the new Feed Reader in Onfolio, and am loving it.  Here are a few nice features on the Feeds and Blogging front:

  • Firefox and IE support -- runs in the browser, or as a dockable deskbar

  • Reading-list feature lets you productively browse through lots of items and mark those you want to go deep on for readying later
  • Nested collections of feeds
  • Search Feeds, with integration into Feedster and Daypop
  • Item capture -- you can pretty much capture any micro-content from the Web,...

    Distracted...by TV

    I've been quite distracted over the past couple of months with interesting things happening in the broadband video world.  The "video industry" on the Internet is starting to emerge with great force and I'm excited to be focused on this area.  I will try and be regular in posting and sharing thoughts again.
