event: September 2008 Archives

Check out the following blog post from NewTeeVee with comments by Facebook and MySpace execs from GigaOM's Mobilize Conference. Both sound bullish on mobile video, with Facebook VP of Growth for Mobile and International Chamath Palihapitiya mentioning services like Flixwagon as the "next logical place to go" and adding: "that’s really cool stuff. To the extent that we can enable people to upload directly and then share that with their friends, I think that’s very powerful."
