New Justin.tv Look!
The date was August 5th, the time was around 11pm pst. Justin and the crew released a brand new Justin.tv with a new look and more importantly some great new features to the site. Here is my review of the new Justin.tv.
Channel Pages
Some of the notable changes of the channel pages are:
Portal Page
The portal page can be seen HERE
I have to admit that I really like the portal page. Of course as you can see they are using coverflow which is used in iTunes and on the iPhone. Hopefully they won’t be sued by apple for “borrowing” coverflow. The portal makes it really easy to browse through all the channels as you can just click an arrow to go to the next casters stream without having to load up a new page. Very handy for those who are channel surfers.
Archive Page
An example of an archive page can be seen HERE The archive I am linking to is the one where Norah falls out of her chair. One of my personal favorites.
I can see the JTV crew have really worked hard on this page and it is almost perfect. 3 new features they added with this updates are:
Some changes are needed.
As far as the archives and tips I would like to see them implement the ability to delete a tip or comment that you have made.
Yes I know the portal page is just a beta page at the moment but I think it needs to be worked on to make it load a little quicker. Once the performance of the page is acceptable it should be the default page of justin.tv. Justin should not be the default page for JTV.

I’ve had the pleasure of watching Mr. Justin Kan for 133 days now. During those 133 days I have learned to love Justin. Sure he can’t cook or clean or get girls very well and every once in a while he enjoys getting drunk. The only thing that annoys me with Justin is his love of the mustard shorts. He has worn these same yellow shorts day after day for the entire time he has been broadcasting. He has worn them at poker games, meetings and even at lunch with a girl. These shorts need to be destroyed at all costs. Jacob and Norah went on a special op mission to destroy them once and for all but wimped out and returned the shorts to Justin. The JTV fans are calling for one brave soul to rid the earth and universe of lifecasting of the evil Mustard Shorts. The following is the video of Jacob and Norah with the frozen shorts. It was a pretty funny night of Norah.tv.
A shocking thing happened to me last night. I went to the local supermarket here doing my normal little shopping when this sexy, beautiful bottle appeared out of nowhere. The clerk was busy putting them out. Could it be the real thing? I asked myself and then I asked the clerk. The clerk said “Yes, vanilla coke is back”. I was so happy I hugged the guy and just started grabbing for the soda. I came home with three 12 packs of cans, five 2 liters and 2 ice cold 20oz bottles.
