Skype founders unveil details of new Internet television project
January 16, 2007 /
The co-founders of the Internet telephone service Skype unveiled the brand name and details of their latest project Tuesday: an Internet-based television service called Joost.
Entrepreneurs Niklas Zennstrom and Janus Friis, who sold Skype for $2.6 billion to eBay in 2005, said the new project combines aspects of file-sharing software and regular broadcast television.
Joost— pronounced "juiced" — may eventually try to move onto television sets, but it will initially focus on making it easier and more fun to watch TV on a computer.
