No, not really. However, if you’re looking for full length shows and a little more than just viral videos, then Joost and Hulu may be the sites for you.
We’ve been onto Joost for some time now, back when the invite only/beta testing period started a couple months back. The concept was great and the content was pretty cool for starters (their offerings have grown considerably since then). This week, however, NBC Universal and News Corp. jumped into the ring with Hulu. Its their answer to Joost and a shot at Apple/iTunes all rolled into one (remember this?). Our only gripes about the sites at this point: Joost isn’t Mac compatible, and Hulu is still only a private function at the moment (although you can sign up for an invite on their homepage). So are these sites, and the others that will soon follow, the future of the television? Its not too unlikely. In the meantime, check ‘em out and decide for yourself.
