Up for grabs: Joost invites
Steve Safran May 2nd, 2007
Since we’re Joost beta users, we can now invite anyone to join Joost. We’re all about sharing the love with the LR Faithful. So write in the comments below your first name and email address and we’ll hook you up…
Update: That’s it folks, we’re shutting it down after a day. Your invites are on the way, if you haven’t received them already. Happy Joosting!

I deserve the invite because I’m the first person to leave a comment. First responders rule. Thank you.

i can’t figure out which of the word(s) “sharing the love”, “faithful” or “hook you up” triggered the google ads for cheating wives.
hmmm.
19. MattG | May 2nd, 2007 at 9:13 am
I’d like to take Joost for a spin, too. Thanks!

thx for sharing. george.herndon@gmail.com
31. Cory | May 2nd, 2007 at 10:09 am
Actually Safran, we can see their email addresses in the admin as long as they put them in the email field. That field doesn’t show in the list here to protect them from getting spammed.
32. Safran | May 2nd, 2007 at 10:22 am
You’d think I would know that, wouldn’t you…
33. Scott | May 2nd, 2007 at 10:28 am

44. john | May 2nd, 2007 at 11:16 am
I’d love to try it out. johnbranstad at dayport dot com
Thanks LR!
45. Josh | May 2nd, 2007 at 11:21 am
I found out about Joost from reading your blog a while back, only to find out I couldn’t access it with out a proper invitation. Could you throw an invite this way? This would make an obsessive beta tester very happy.
Thanks!

52. Anders E | May 2nd, 2007 at 11:52 am
Thanx from up north!
53. Steve Safran | May 2nd, 2007 at 11:54 am
OK: Everyone above this comment has just been sent a batch. I don’t know how fast Joost turns around the invites - it looks like it’s certainly not instantaneous. So don’t panic just yet if you don’t see it. But they have gone out. We have more, so keep the requests coming…
Good to hear from so many of you for the first time. Now don’t be shy and comment some more at LR!
54. Eric | May 2nd, 2007 at 12:05 pm
Woot!
55. mike moore | May 2nd, 2007 at 12:09 pm

This is going to be great.
94. News Consumer (aka Adam) | May 2nd, 2007 at 5:21 pm
Wow, you’re a popular guy tonight! Thanks for the offer to send Joost invites, you’re a champ for helping us all out. Please send one on over to me, Adam - do.u.lie@goowy.com.
95. Gary | May 2nd, 2007 at 5:23 pm
terrestrial TV marketers want to see the future.
96. News Consumer | May 2nd, 2007 at 5:37 pm
People want alacarte cable - this is one way to get it. Will we really need TimeWarner/CableVision/DirecTV et al in a few years?
97. Chris | May 2nd, 2007 at 5:37 pm
This would be really helpful for my PhD research.
98. Kate | May 2nd, 2007 at 5:51 pm

107. Jackie Huba | May 2nd, 2007 at 8:30 pm
Steve,
Thanks for the invite. Only problem is the darn service does not work on non-Intel Macs, like my not-that-old PowerBook G4. I didn’t see that little fine print until after I downloaded and installed the app.
Looking forward to reading your review of the service since most of us Mac people can’t use it : (
108. Kyle | May 2nd, 2007 at 9:06 pm

109. Mike | May 2nd, 2007 at 10:03 pm
I’m a west coaster…perhaps I’m last…but it’s still “tonight” here…if there are any left, send away!
110. RickyDomingo | May 2nd, 2007 at 10:17 pm
This is the problem with RSS readers. I’ve been wanting an invite to Joost for a while now, but I don’t know anyone already signed up for the beta. This is the third post I’ve seen giving out invites, and the third time I’ve been late to the party.
111. Michael | May 2nd, 2007 at 10:17 pm
Please invite me.

Ok, I just invited everyone after #87 (Safran invited everyone up to that point).
That’s it… we’re shutting it down… thanks everyone!
114. Josh | May 3rd, 2007 at 6:25 am
Thanks for the Invite! I can’t wait to try it out.
115. chris | May 3rd, 2007 at 7:01 am
Sigh, that’s what I get for not reading LostRemote every single day… joost too late. joost kicking myself. maybe if i try to think of joost wordplay that hasn’t already been used by the previous 112 fine folks… i need a joost boost. orange joost with no pulp fiction, please. will there be re-runs of P.G Wodehouse “Jooster and Weeves” shows? ok, ok, these are all obscure or just plain bad…. anybody want to take pity on me before I embarrass myself further and send an invite to localmedia@verizon.net ?
116. chris | May 3rd, 2007 at 8:09 am
Thanks, Rob, for forwarding me an invite!
117. Frank Currie | May 3rd, 2007 at 10:40 am

Not sure if anyone is still sending out invites, but I’d love to have one. I’ve been to the Joost site and it looks pretty damn interesting. I’ve been to a few Internet TV sites, and the quality looks pretty good on some, but I am wondering whether or not Joost will blow them away.
Thanks,

Add me to the list - I want Joost.
Thanks if you can.
153. Tariq Ahmad | May 17th, 2007 at 4:25 am
Dear Steve Safran,
I would love to try out Joost TV (Beta) - I have no right, nor do I deserve to come before others.
But I do appreciate an invite though.
I read about Joost.com TV in the newspaper, and as I’m already a hardcore streamer, this might be something for me.
Cheers
Tariq Ahmad
154. Marc | May 24th, 2007 at 2:47 pm

162. John Sand Jessen | June 2nd, 2007 at 9:04 am
Cheers buddy.
I read about Joost TV last week and I am truly excited about this long awaited new leap forward in the merging of tv and Internet. As we all know Joost TV is from the creators of Skype and yes, this validates the quality up front. Also, I like the marketing approach taken of creating a hype in the market with the access as of now only for friends. Very clever
I hope you can share an invitation so I wil have the possibility to check out Joost TV.
Kind regards /John
163. Sal | June 4th, 2007 at 6:03 pm
