We Got Joosted

My Joost invite came through via the ol’ Twitter network (thanks, Leanda!) and I’ve been playing with it some. A full report will be posted to Uncabled pretty soon, but I just had to get one comment out: There are channels that you are completely unable to remove from your “My Channels” quicklist. Utterly stupid channels like “World’s Strongest Man” and “Lazy TV”: the “Remove” button is disabled on these channels’ settings. I seriously hope this is just a bug, because if this is what Joost expects people to live with — especially when several of these channels are freely web-streamable from network homepages or available as unrestricted video podcasts — then this application is not going to outlive its initial PR.
