DISQUS

Mathew's comments: My BlogTV.ca eulogy: Good riddance

  • JimCanuck · 2 years ago
    My experience with blogtv.ca was so bad it's worth repeating here what I commented to Mark Evans post on this.

    Here is a real problem for blogtv.ca. Earlier this week Jeff Pulver was asking people to watch his blogtv broadcast, so I type in the URL he gave — blogtv.com/Shows/96 - and what do I get? A redirect to blogtv.ca with access to only Canadian content. Come on guys and gals, the Internet ignores borders — especially when you’re trying to launch a service that needs user generated content. If I can’t get content from my US acquaintances, (or from anywhere else worldwide), I’m not going to use the service.

    Do a search at blogtv.ca on Pulver or Scoble and you come up dry.

    Blogtv.ca executives must be ex-CRTC people, thinking they know better than I what is good for Canadians to see. Tonight I could still get blogtv.ca but if they are going off the air, they deserve to die.
