BrightCove @12:04 PM
Jeremy Allaire, the guy who did a lot of work with Flash and ColdFusion, has a startup called BrightCove that is featured in today's NYT.
As Om Malik writes:
As Allaire explains it, Bright Cove will be quite different from [other DVR stuff]. Instead of developing a hardware platform, the company will base everything it does on open standards, and will essentially be a software platform that will run on any kind of device - Microsoft Media Centers to TiVo to connected DVD players. In other words, he is gunning for a market that is the super nova of consumer-acquired devices.
Potentially cool in the context of seminar last night, Allaire also notes:
this is really a platform for the little guy. Someone who is interested in video blogging, short form film and other downloadable forms of video. “For live broadcasts, cable and service providers there is no substitute, and it is not feasible,” he says, “Network PVR and connected DVD players and other devices that are connected to open Internet will be able to use this to deliver content.” It is through this consumer electronics proxy, the video content will be delivered to the only screen that matters for video: the television.
sounds pretty cool -- anyone else have any info on this stuff>? Was this mentioned by K.Cheese and I just spaced it?
