Justine picture with cam on her headFor the second time this month Justine is on the front page of yahoo. This time it is for lifecasting. Justin and Justine are featured on Yahoo’s People of the Web. The amount of traffic coming to JTV from this article is staggering. At one point the number of viewers watching Justine was over 3,000. Which makes me cringe when I think of the chatroom. The chat goes by fast when there is under 200 viewers. Just imagine how bad it is when you have 3000 viewers trying to get Justine’s attention as they all scream “JUSTINE SAY MY NAME!!!!!!!” or “WAVE TO ME JUSTINE!!!!!!!!”
It is nice to see Justin being included in this story. He hasn’t gotten any big press in the past few months. For Justin’s interview they talked about the night he got “laid” and how that brought in many viewers. Also during the taping of the interview an unexpected thing happens. A random guy gets his cell phone stolen from him and Justin catches the whole thing on video. Justin then offers to send the archive video to the guy to see who the criminal was. It was just a matter of time before Justin caught something illegal on his cam.
The Yahoo article is titled The Real Reality TV which is a great title for this story about the 2 lifecasters. I suggest you take a look at the article and video. http://potw.news.yahoo.com/s/potw/40075/the-real-reality-tv

Happy Birthday Kyle! Kyle Who?

TheRingerThe Homewrecker also known as TheRinger was born on this date in 1985. Kyle the quiet Kansas boy who is turning 22 today plays a key part in the JTV team. He dropped out of MIT to help Justin and the rest of the crew with the new startup. TheRinger is someone who has all around tech skills. He can do hardware and software. He’s gone from doing BattleBots to making it possible to stream live video from anywhere. Without Kyle there would be no Justin.tv.
Happy Birthday to the Ringer.
