Mesh '07 tickets are now on sale. AT $399/- for the two days, its worth the money !! The line-up of talkers also seem OK, they are some of the regular loud mouths of Web2.0. However, Richard Edelman, CEO of Edelman Co.speaks on the tension between the openness of the Web and traditional marketing. This certainly will be an interesting session , after all - blogopshere still remembers the Walmart scenario !!
Anyhoot, cya all there..
Yesterday spent the evening at Blogtv.ca luanch event at T-dot the supermarket. The site was actually live when I did my research the prior nite. This time actally tested out some functionalty.
The overall experince was pretty kewl. I can see some sort of activity for myself in this space. Its a for fun and can also be used seriously for collobrative efforts. NEed to figure out how to 'block' users from joining a broadcast. Yeah, I want pimp myself in the After Hours Section, to be able to invite only select users to join into my broadcast. Secondly, they also need to expand the Geo IP blocking at least into the .US zone. Afterall , early adopters to technologies are bigger in number on the southside. Audio /Video Qaality is a little fuzzy , could be because of the amibence of the surrounding and the backchatter.

Motorola's Connected Home Division completed its acquisition of Kreatel
Gartner Reports
Communications, a Swedish developer of IPTV digital set-tops. Kreatel's set-top platform paves the way for Motorola to have better and more-rapid presence in the IPTV marketplace, as well as complementing the end-to-end digital video solutions it has in cable, xDSL and fiber-to-the-premises video. With the pending acquisition by Cisco Systems of Scientific-Atlanta, Motorola will now compete more directly with Cisco for all elements of the end-to-end video infrastructure value chain - which encompasses network infrastructure, video headend and transport, MPEG-4 encoding, broadband cable modem/gateways, VoIP multimedia terminal adapters, cable and IP
set-tops, and other devices.
This is interesting space to watch- Moto is really having some cool hand held devices but this is the first time that I am seeing them enter into this space of Cable, DSL and on the fiber VOD value offerings.
