I’ve been playing with Joost for about 24 hours now. I think this might be the next killer-app. I just spent an hour or so watching a blazing fast, high-end sports cars take on one of the most deadly roads in England. Great stuff.

If you have been living in outer-space, here a bit on what Joost is about:

Joost is a new way of watching TV on the internet. With Joost, you get all the things you love about TV, including a high-quality full-screen picture, hundreds of full-length shows and easy channel-flipping. (Joost.com)

What I Like

• The interface is slick
• The idea is just freaking cool.
• The Widgets
  • Instant Messaging built-in (great for us multi-taskers)
  • Channel Chat - talk about what you are watching
  • Many more, plus more coming
• Well, everyone wants it and I got it (That’s always fun)

What I Don’t Like

• First, it’s still Beta, so things will change
• More Channels (I really want to watch the Soccer Network)
• I wasn’t completely impressed with the quality in full-screen mode (could be my laptop’s graphics card)

What’s Coming to Joost

• Users can create content
• Users can create their own widgets
• More Channels
