What do you think of my app? Would you sign up? (watchitonair.com)

Is it generally trying to solve the problem of having so many video platforms that people can't keep track of what's on? Would you just link to the video stream? What's the social feature exactly - just letting your friends know something is on? Is this something the content provider would use, or the viewers? Seems like a cool idea to have a centralized database of what's streaming on the web at any given point. Would you break it up into categories? Would you rely on crowdsourcing to get all the links? Website looks great though. Great colors and logo. Not sure if others agree, but a few too many exclamation points for my taste.


I think it's Kind of like my app http://netshowtim.es except yours looks way better (but mine is at least partly up). I would sign up. We desperately need something like this for web shows or webinars or whatever you want to call them.


Well, I mean there is no app as of yet, just an idea and a splash page. I wouldn't use it just because I don't watch tv, but I'm sure some may find it useful.
