Joost is pretty impressive. They have a good product as well as great execution and marketing.

Before Skype, there were lots of VOIP companies and there are a bunch of TV P2P startups now. I wonder how this will play out.

Too many people are expecting Joost to be the next Kazaa/Skype. That kind of expectation might be attracting the wrong kind of people. I think this CEO is probably one of those people. I'm sure the five years at Cisco has rotted his brain beyond repair.
