Everyone knows that more and more .com investors are opening their minds up to the .tv extension.tv extension.

Last month, I had the chance to interview William Brister, a .com investor who recently became interested in the .tv extension.  While William is late to the domain name game, he shares some unique insights as a domainer who initially was interested in .com discovered .tv.  In the blogcast, William describes how he got involved in .tv, what is attractive about the extension, and where he sees the extension going and why investors, domainers, and developers shouldn’t miss the .tv opportunity.

This will be a trend we continue to see repeat itself as more .tv sale ring up high sale prices.

Listen to the blogcast after the jump!

Why is BrightCove considered by so many to be the Number 1 video platform? Jeremy Allaire discusses his company and product lines in fine detail and also lays out his vision for the future of online video advertising aswell as his vision for the internet in general.

Some of our viewers will remember a quick article I wrote on Fora.tv a while back. Alright, it wasn’t so much an article, more a quick announcement of what a fully developed .tv site can look like. A good idea, great content and a superior website development team are the essential ingredients needed to produce a site of this quality.

Notice if you will, the lack of “bling” to the site, but the obvious class of the content is all too apparent.

The above video is a prime example of such content, a video debate between Al Sharpton and Christopher Hitchens on the recent publication by Mr Hitchens of his controversial book “God is not great, How religion poisons everything..”

Well folks, having just launched our BrightCove channel, we decided that we would use it for our blogcasts too. Feel free to embed the interview in your own blogs and websites.

I do have to apologise for the sound quality in some parts of the interview. We are doing our homework on getting the best audio equipment possible as quickly as possible, but we want to make sure we buy right!!


Jeremy has kindly agreed to free up some time to talk to Allthings.tv in the early part of next week. I do have a list of questions that I will be putting to Jeremy concerning the BrightCove platform/network, different monetization models available to content producers aswell as publishers thinking about launching their own channel and his thoughts on the future of video on the net in general.

Whilst I am always going to have a strong affiliation to the .tv extension, it is not the only domain that I am invested in. I have some .com traffic domains aswell as some .mobi names.

My feelings on the .mobi land rush back in 2006 is that I gambled and gambled wrong. To me this was an extension that made little sense given that a .com could work just aswell for a small mobile screen as it could for the laptop and desktop, so why would anyone want to tap in a four letter extension on a tiny keyboard when three would do and when com was and is still king.

And so I registered just one domain, GHETTO.mobi. And to be honest, even that was more of a “just to say I was there” reg than anything else.
