Joel Comm steps into new territory
Wednesday, March 26th, 2008Well he finally took the plunge in the ever widening field
of video streaming.
Today I watched as Joel Comm took his first attempt at
live video streaming like my friend Chris Pirillo does
every day, via UStream.TV
For his first time out I think he did quite well. They
had a few bugs at the beginning, but once they settled
in things took off and it was quite enjoyable and
informative. The time flew by so fast and I think
everyone wanted Joel to stay on longer or come
back for a “Part 2″ secession. (I guess we can blame
that on Chris…. He’s got us spoiled.)
I have no doubt that the entire program format will
evolve and settle into their own unique style over
the next few months and that’s when it’ll really smooth
out start rocking.
There was talk about making it into a membership only
site and I have mixed emotions about that. I for one
can’t afford to pay some monthly or yearly fee then
have to plan on being there at a certain day and time
or I miss out not only on the show but also the money
I had to payout.
Chris runs his live stream 24/7, plus puts up at least 5
videos on YouTube all for “FREE” — Joel’s still deciding
as to whether or not it’s going to be a weekly or bi-weekly
show — FOR A FEE!?!?!?
Come on Joel… The “PR” you’ll get from the show will pay off
in the long run, (Backend). Try this… Keep it free for a year
and see how it goes, ‘THEN’ decide which way to run it. At
least you will have built up a bunch of followers by that time.
Good Luck Joel!

Joel was talking about. PLEASE see his comments —
