Joost in the Radar
O'Reilly Radar publishes an article titled "Joost
is the iPhone of TV" that says that "Joost is the
Firefox
or iPhone
of TV" because it is based on the "the
Mozilla XUL platform, which enables the rapid and simple creation of
plugins, already known to a hoard of Firefox extension developers".
The comparison with Firefox is very accurate, since Joost will allow people to write extensions to their TV. But that's unfortunately not the case of the iPhone which appears to be clearly locked down.
So the article should have better been titled "Joost is the Firefox of TV"!
Oh, and have a look of the nice cake that was prepared to celebrate the launch. Yummy :-)
