smojo, social web, android and more

My ooVoo Day is going to be a week-long event beginning February 10th. During this time you will be able to video chat with some high profile podcasters, bloggers and some girl with an i in front of her name. You will be able to do this using ooVoo.

ooVoo which officially launched back in June of 2007 gives you the ability to video chat with up to 6 people at a time. It has many more features though then just video. Personally I have been using it because you are able to make free phone calls which is saving me lots of money since all I have right now is a cell phone. Some other features of ooVoo are the ability to send video messages and files. Oh they also have text chatting as well for all of us who don’t want to be on camera at 10 in the morning. Feel free to add me on ooVoo my username is smojo12.

But lets get back to My ooVoo Day…Some of my favorite internet people are going to be participating in this. People like Chris Brogan, Irina Slutsky, iJustine and the list goes on and on. Being able to interact with some of these people is going to a fun time and I hope everyone joins in on the fun. Just the fact that you will have 6 video chatters at once will make it pretty interesting. Below is all linkage to join the fun.

Justin and the crew are in the papers again. This time they make it into the Wall Street Journal and the New York Times. In the NY Times article they touch on some of the statistics for Justin.tv after they opened it up to everyone.

Justin.tv formally declared that it was open for business to one and all. In its first five days, the company said, it created 18,500 hours of video and pulled in 500,000 unique visitors.

also we hear from someone who we rarely hear anything from. Stewart Alsop, from the venture capital firm Alsop Louie Partners who are one of the firms investing in Justin.tv.

“If there are 6 billion people in the world,” he said, “imagine one million people broadcasting live, 999,000 of whom are boring — but the other 1,000 are really interesting. – Stewart Alsop

Here are the full articles to check out. JTV continues to get positive press. Hopefully Justin and Justine will be able to get on a TV show together sometime.
