Veoh: A stream of streams.

I've never been a big fan of streaming video. I hardly ever go on YouTube. I think streaming video suffers from what TV suffers from--the ability to instantaneous find what you're looking for. With web pages, you have tools to search for exactly what you're looking for. Google or Wikipedia the general idea, then search the text for the exact phrase. Instant gratification. Sure, sites like YouTube allow you to find exactly what you want to watch, but you still have to watch it. Ever watch a video from someone with no description, but it took seven minutes to get to an unrewarding punchline?

If I had to choose streaming videos, I like the direction where Veoh is going. Veoh most recently was featured in Wired Magazine for their new product VeohTV. It basically aggregates all the streaming video sites and plays them all. I like that. It's basically the internet version of TV. You just turn it on and let it go.

The article addresses products like Joost, so I won't go into it. I'm sure it's pretty self explanatory.

I'd like to state that I'm pretty biased though. My friend works for Veoh, so I wish only good things for her and her company.
